Marienröder Hof

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Marienröder Hof (also: Marienröderhof or Marienröder Klosterhof ) in Hanover was a branch of the Hildesheim Cistercian monastery Marienrode in the Middle Ages . The location of the courtyard within the city ​​fortifications of Hanover was the area between the city wall on Friedrichswall and Köbelingerstraße (since 1972 partly the Köbelinger Markt ) near the (former) Knappenort in the (today's) district of Mitte .

history

According to the monument conservator Arnold Nöldeke , the Cistercian monastery - "according to Franziscus Borsum's Chronicle of Hanover as early as 1250" - acquired a branch. According to the “UB No. 93” (document book), the monastery bought Conrad Tedweghinge's property in 1308 , which reached up to the city wall. Since the monastery had given up the space at the so-called guardian corridor (a corridor inside the wall for the guards to defend the city), the courtyard was exempted from certain city taxes .

In 1439 the monastery - with the permission of Bishop Albrecht von Hoya and with the consent of the " Plebanus " of the Aegidienkirche of Hanover - built a chapel directly on Köbelingerstrasse , which was dedicated to Saints Philip and Jacob . It was built “of stone” and was directly accessible from the street through a side entrance under an arched passage.

After the Reformation the spiritual purpose of the complex was given up. In 1610 the city council is said to have bought the entire site. In addition to the chapel, there was a front building, a residential building with a side building, a tithe barn , a stable and a pigsty as well as a courtyard and garden.

The residential building separated the courtyard and the garden and extended along the north-western side of the courtyard to the city wall tower on Neuer Weg , on the site of the arts and crafts school built around the tower from 1889 to 1891 . The windows of the house there had been broken by the city wall and gave a view of Friedrichswall . On the garden side of the house was a special audience - chamber with fireplace been established.

Just over a century later, the former chapel in 1720 served as a repository for artillery - ammunition of the city and urban hand-mills . A store for grain was housed on the upper floor and - peat : At the time, peat was the most important heating and fuel material in the city, which was shipped from Altwarmbüchener Moor via the Schiffgraben and the (later) harbor at the New House to the Aegidientor gate to Hanover and was temporarily even stored in the Begin Tower .

From 1729 to 1749 the mayor of Hanover, Christian Ulrich Grupen , leased what was now the city's property.

The buildings of the originally monastic settlement were demolished in the 18th century, and in 1818 the property was finally divided .

Floor plans and illustrations

Centuries after the construction of the Marienröder Hof, the Hanoverian chronicler Johann Heinrich Redecker tried to reconstruct the courtyard with various drawings. The monument conservator Nöldeke presented this as only "approximate" and referred to the "Corpus bonorum" (see literature) from 1720 in his representations.
