The market square in Velden , a market in the Lower Bavarian district of Landshut , is a protected building ensemble under the Bavarian Monument Act.

Containment

The ensemble consists of the medieval market square , a street plaza that rises from north to south and bends in its center in sharp, right-angled hooks to the east. The inner row of houses at the corner of the street that surrounds the foot of the church hill rises above the ground level significantly higher than the outer one. A green corridor planted with trees provides compensation.

history

Velden was already a central place in Carolingian times, which developed into a market place under the rule of the Hochstift Regensburg from 903 to 1803 (see secularization in Bavaria ) .

description

The predominantly closed development consists mostly of residential and commercial buildings as well as brewery inns, which were newly built after the city fire of 1862 or which have received their older external form. The buildings have plastered fronts, some of the facades have structures and decorations in neo-Gothic , Neo-Renaissance and Neo- Baroque forms . The roof shapes and gable ends are different.

The connection between the two halves of the market is formed by the small neo-Gothic town hall. A group of small houses with protruding flat roofs near the former blacksmith's shop reminds of the older type of development before the fire of 1862.
