history
From 1905 Max Hofmann's residential office building
There was a previous building on the 21 m wide property, which is believed to have been a typical two-story, plastered half-timbered house with a gable, some of which still exist on Magdeburger Allee. In 1905, the master plumber Max Hofmann submitted a building application to the city of Erfurt for the construction of the 8 m deep and 25 m long two-storey courtyard building, which was to be built in the rear area of the property at Hauptstrasse 52 in Ilversgehofen, which was not yet incorporated at the time. The site plan still showed the floor plan of the old front building, which had two additions to the courtyard and was marked as a demolition object. The house was to include a "plumbing", a "locksmith" and an "office" on the ground floor. The half-timbered upper floor was to be used as a warehouse. In 1907 a building application followed to build the 21 m long, four-story front building. A passage and two shops on the ground floor were planned, each with a shop, storage room and toilet, as well as 6 large apartments on the upper floors, two on each floor. The attic remained undeveloped. The two-story extension on the courtyard side followed a few years later. In 1908 the house was listed in the Erfurt address book under the name Poststraße 52 with master plumber Hofmann as the owner. Another building application from Hofmann followed in 1917. The shop on the left was to be divided so that a " hairdressing salon " with separate rooms for men and women would be created on the right side .
From 1920: trade union building, city administration and youth center
After the First World War, the house was sold to the "Treuhandgesellschaft des Verband der Fabrikarbeiter Deutschlands GmbH" in Hanover. On their behalf in 1922, the Erfurt architect Otto Frank submitted plans to convert the courtyard building for use as a union building. Today's yard was still used as a garden at that time, with a chicken yard in the back. The planning provided for the installation of offices and a large meeting room as well as a toilet facility. In 1925 another building application followed to expand the attic. An apartment with a dormer window and six “chambers”, which were apparently rented to workers, were to be built. In 1934 the property was named Horst-Wessel-Straße 107. In a letter dated May 28, 1934, the Central Germany Association requested documents from the municipal building authority for the National Socialist " German Labor Front - German Factory Workers Association in the General Association of German Workers ", which had recently been founded in place of the broken unions the purchase of the site, construction contract, etc. In 1937 the property was at number 136. In the front building there was the Artur Keilholz clothing store, the Ilse Weise shoe store and the Heinrich Wagner shoemaker's workshop, above which the general practitioner Dr. Otto Nuding. After the Second World War, only the address changed to Weißenseer Allee 136 , the shops on the ground floor continued. In addition to Dr. Nuding also Mrs. Nuding mau.
In 1969 the Erfurt city administration for the north city district was in the building, including the certificate office . The ground floor was converted into a canteen and training room. The shop windows were walled up except for small openings. The apartments were combined and converted into offices. Passages through the fire wall were broken to the neighboring house on the left, which also served as an office building . In 1990 the house was returned to the legal successor of its last owner before National Socialism, the "Treuhandverwaltung des Verband der Fabrikarbeiter Deutschlands eV" in Hanover. At the time, the house was used by the Erfurt City Administration's youth welfare office. In 1998 the offices of various associations were located in the building, including the Action Group for Peace Erfurt eV, which hosted an exhibition "Against the War" on Anti- War Day from there.
From 2004: restoration and use as a residential office building
