Semi-detached house at Ludwig-Pfau-Strasse 46/48 and Happelstrasse 57

The semi-detached house Ludwig-Pfau-Straße 46 and 48 and Happelstraße 57 in Heilbronn is a listed building in the Heilbronn Südstadt.

Location and surroundings

The building is located on the corner of Ludwig-Pfau-Strasse and Happelstrasse within a historic workers' residential area that was designed in 1873 by the city master builder Reinhard Baumeister . While Ludwig-Pfau-Strasse was named after the Heilbronn honorary citizen and poet Ludwig Pfau and runs as an axis from north to south, Happelstrasse was named after another honorary citizen, the merchant Wilhelm Happel .

Both Ludwig-Pfau-Strasse and Happelstrasse were redeveloped in the years 1977–1981 by urban planning and urban development. On June 15, 2004, the entire residential area "Heilbronn-Südviertel", together with Ludwig-Pfau-Strasse and Happelstrasse, was formally designated as a redevelopment area by statute.

history

The master carpenter Ernst Nahm had the building built as a tenement house, with each apartment having a loggia that faced the garden at the rear of the house. Like most of the other houses in the historic workers' residential area when they were completed, the house had three-room apartments without a bathroom, with the ground floor often being used for business purposes. Here, too, the ground floor of the corner house was originally used as an office .

In 1950 the part of the building at Ludwig-Pfau-Strasse 46 belonged to the worker Karoline Hofmann, the part no. 48 of the building belonged to Philippine Ritter, who lives in Frankenbach, and the part of the building at Happelstrasse 57 to the electrician Otto Merker. In 1961 the part of the building belonged to Ludwig-Pfau-Str. 46 to the carpenter Heinrich Streckfuß, No. 48 belonged to Otto Vetter, who lives in Karl-Marx-Straße, and the part of the building at Happelstraße 57 belonged to the widow Klara Merker.

description

The multi-family house built for working-class and artisan families consists of houses that have been connected to one another. The semi-detached house on Ludwig-Pfau-Strasse and the house on Happelstrasse were built as a joint four-and-a-half-storey building with a plastered facade in Art Nouveau style. The central dormer connects the two halves of the building semi-detached house at the Ludwig-Peacock Road visually with each other.

Art historical significance

The house designed by Adolf Braunwald is an example of the detachment from historicism . The building is shaped by Art Nouveau and has "thoroughly modern features" for its construction period in 1906/1907.

For example, the facade was not made of exposed masonry, as was customary for this time and for the district. Instead, the facade is characterized by an " unhistorical design language" and it was preferred to decorate it with " Art Nouveau- style plaster ornamentation ". The building was listed as a cultural monument.
