Lynckersches Palais
The Lynckersche Palais (sometimes also called Glücksches Haus ) is a baroque aristocratic palace in Erlangen . The building at Friedrichstraße 35 was built in 1748 and today houses the Erlangen Singing and Music School. It is a listed building.
description
The two-storey, stately corner house is located on the south side of Friedrichstrasse, where several noble families settled in the first half of the 18th century. The sandstone block construction with a hipped roof of four to eleven window axes has a sparing architectural structure: the two floors are separated from one another by a cornice , while the corners and the portal axis are emphasized with grooved pilaster strips . Further pilaster strips are located on the long side after the second and fourth axis from the left. The two arched entrance portals have a straight roof and a drilled frame. The windows have a simple profiled frame. Inside the house, a banister with twisted balusters has been preserved.
To the south of the building there was originally a large garden surrounded by a sandstone wall. This extended along today's driveway to the southern city wall street. Later the garden was built over with the Friedrich-Sponsel-Halle, inaugurated in 1971, or redesigned into a courtyard area with parking spaces.
history
The palace was built in 1748. The builder can no longer be determined with certainty, allegedly it was a Herr von Egloffstein . Around 1750/51, Wilhelmine Friederike Elisabeth von Lyncker , née Baroness von Seckendorf , bought the property that has been named after her ever since. Lyncker was widow of the Reichshofrat and margravial Ansbach privy councilor Ernst Christian von Lyncker (1685-1750). In 1758 Wilhelmine von Lyncker sold the house to the margrave chamberlain, Karl Wilhelm Buirette von Oehlefeld. In the purchase contract, the wallpapers in three rooms are mentioned in particular, which came from the well-known Erlangen wallpaper weaving mill de Chazeaux. They have not survived to this day. The Buirette von Oehlefelds auctioned the palace in 1804.
The new owner became the confectioner Johann Christoph Knab, who, however, sold it on to Christian Friedrich von Glück after only one year . Glück was a professor of law at the University of Erlangen and later became an honorary citizen. A plaque attached to the house commemorates him today.
After Glück's death, the city of Erlangen acquired the property from his heirs in 1868 in order to use the building to house part of the 6th Royal Bavarian Jäger Battalion . The palace then served the garrison until the so-called Old Barracks on Bismarckstrasse were built in 1877. It then housed the Vömelsche private daughters' institute, from which the municipal secondary school for girls (now the Marie-Therese-Gymnasium ) emerged in 1887 .
After moving into a new school building on Schillerstrasse in 1909, the Lynckersche Palais served, among other things, as the office of the Frauenwohl Association, for teaching purposes for the elementary school and until 1926 as the seat of the general local health insurance fund . In addition, there was a girls' day care center for the after-school care of otherwise unsupervised elementary school girls from the working class. In 1923, some secondary school classes moved into the building, which stayed here until 1954, although the Lynckersche Palais was not suitable for school purposes. From 1955 the house housed departments of the Siemens-Schuckertwerke , until from 1962 municipal departments such as the road traffic and housing department and the administration of the non-profit housing association (GEWOBAU) used the property.
In 1983 the city left the building to the Frankenhof youth music venue, which was merged with the city's singing and music school in 1995. The latter is still based here today.
