Location and history

Neusser Strasse starts at Bilker Allee and flows into Haroldstrasse . It crosses Weiherstrasse, Düsselstrasse, Fürstenwall and Hubertusstrasse.

Neusser Straße was the main street of the new town planned by Jan Wellem, in which the planned castle was also to be built:

Jan Wellem had planned his“ Neustadt ”up to the present city gate (harbor). The curved “Lahnweg” with the simple row houses reflects the southernmost tip of the bastion to this day. The first synagogue had been located on the main street, Neusserstasse, since 1709. This became the Hubertusstift in 1773, the first hospital in 1800 (all of this: Neusserstr 25, can still be seen today). Opposite Jan Wellem was planning his new castle, it was only enough for the large cavalry barracks of the hussars much later in 1820 (today police headquarters). Where the bend in Neusserstr is (Tellstr), you left Jan Wellems Neustadt, either left to the Loreto Chapel (today St. Martins Church, also Bilker Church) or right over Dorfstrasse to Hamm ("Brückenstrasse" since the Hammer Railway Bridge in 1870) . "

Development

According to Paul Sültenfuß, the historical buildings on Neusser Strasse come from "the Albertis district ". Jörg Heimeshoff describes the current development on the street: "It has a closed perimeter block development, which is broken through on the west side by modern office buildings".

This is the former development on Neusser Straße between Haroldstraße, Deichstraße (no longer exists) and Hubertusstraße:

  • No. 8: The house at Neusser Straße No. 8 was designed by Matteo Alberti. The art locksmith Wilhelm Bird - who worked for Jan Wellem - created the skylight of the house. Bird had also created the stairs in the town hall and the staircase decorations in Ehreshoven Castle. In Düsseldorf residential buildings, the door frame usually appears as a simple “picture frame”. In this building, however, the main accent is, for once, the elaborate architectural framing of the door: “The stone frame shows (...) the most diverse forms.” This is how the door frame of the house forms the "main piece of the door composition" "with a rich profile with pilasters or columns, consoles, volutes and lively structured door lintel appearance". The carving of the door was also elaborately designed: In the "upper part in the middle section with its own beautiful carved foliage circumscribed by a square." The house no longer exists.
  • No. 12/14: The twin house is an example of Alberti's influence on Neusser Straße. "The detail of the window and door framing shows again that exact drawing as on Alberti's creations". Paul Sültenfuß pays tribute to the semi-detached house and describes the decorative shape of the old baroque door: “The […] decorative shape of the old baroque doors is still so common in Düsseldorf today and has such a down-to-earth character that we are probably talking about a local carving school for the time of Johan Wilhelm allowed to". The lunette above the gate entrance to the semi-detached house Neusser Strasse 12 and 14 is considered the “masterpiece of this carving school” of door and portal decorations. The house no longer exists.

Neusser Straße between Hubertusstraße and Fürstenwall:

  • No. 18: Was an entrance to the stables of the cavalry barracks of the 2nd Westphalian Hussar Regiment No. 11 .
  • No. 20: The listed building is the former regional finance office at Jürgensplatz 1–3. The building of the Oberfinanzdirektion was built in 1929/1939 on Jürgensplatz , in the style of a functional, purpose-oriented brick architecture, in place of an earlier cavalry barracks of the hussars from 1820, the main entrance of which was at number 20 in the mid-19th century. Jan Wellem originally planned his new castle here.
  • No. 22: Was another entrance to the barracks stables
  • No. 23: Was the seat of the poor administration of the Hubertus Hospital.
  • No. 25: The building is the listed Hubertus-Stift , in which the first synagogue was built in 1712 .
