Marktplatz 3 (Esslingen)
The Marktplatz 3 building (previously: Spitalplatz 13) in Esslingen am Neckar is a listed building from the 15th century.
History and description
The house was part of the Katharinenspital , with which the Esslingen market square was completely overbuilt until 1811. It was first mentioned in a document in 1459 as "des Spital nuwes huss". It stands on the left over an older vaulted cellar that extends to the west under the alley. The Geiselbach vault is located under the right half of the house. The gable-facing, plastered storey structure has projections typical of the period with lugs on the gable and west side. In the first of the two attic floors there was once a loading hatch that can still be seen on a lithograph from the 19th century. Around the middle of the 19th century a neo-Gothic bay window was attached to the facade, and towards the end of the 19th century a raised bay window was installed on the back of the house. On the west side, the infills on the ground floor were removed in the 20th century, creating an arcade. The top floor was expanded in 1979. The former house is now used as a residence and guest house; A wooden ceiling with tendril paintings from the early 18th century has been preserved on the first floor, and a stucco ceiling with banding on the second floor . The house had been owned by well-known citizens since the 16th century. In the 1840s, Carl Jakob Christian Weiß bought the house, which was owned by the Weiß family until 1910. Weiß had acquired the house from the estate of the widow Magdalena Levi.
