Architecture and history

The street-side house was built around 1550 in half-timbered construction. It shows elements of the late Gothic as well as the Renaissance and is considered an early example of the Lower Saxony half-timbered style . The upper floors protrude clearly. The keel arch portal on the house , the corrugated ribbon , as well as the rest of the gate system, are of late Gothic origin . The fan rosettes and the barrel-shaped beam heads , on the other hand, represent ornaments typical of the Renaissance. The building comprises 16 bundles in width and consists of two parts of the building, which were already independent houses when they were built. A gable separating the two halves runs through the entire building. Each half has its own entrance and a separate cellar. The small basement with a square floor plan below house number 48 is made of sandstone and has a barrel vault . The master carpenter who carried out the construction is unknown. The ground floor was rebuilt around 1820. There is a baroque staircase in the gateway . The gate itself was built around 1840.

From the 17th to the 19th century, the house was mostly owned by craftsmen. Thus, Gerber , Schuster , Leinweber and Hooper mentioned.

Western part - house number 48

The western part of the building is still predominantly in the state in which it was built. A mezzanine was subsequently added on the ground floor . As a result, the ceiling beams had to be moved upwards in a room on the upper floor facing the courtyard, creating a kind of pedestal there.

Two cantilevered upper floors rise above the mezzanine. On the half-timbered facade there are roller beam heads , which are decorated with stars formed from notch cuts . Among the bar heads are lugs arranged. Sill timbers designed as a ship's throat are arranged between the beam heads . There is a wave band on the threshold of the first floor . The keel arch portal at the building from the construction period corresponds in appearance to a passage in the house at Breite Straße 51, 52 . The ceilings on the floors of the building consist of clay wraps inserted between the ceiling beams. Renovations were carried out in the 18th century, with the front door also being relocated. The keel arch portal was retained, however. When moving the door, the right upright of the door was removed and the first recently renewed. The lintels were removed in the 18th and 19th centuries, but later reconstructed.

Towards the courtyard, the framework of the outer wall is only of construction-time origin on the upper floors. At the beginning of the renovation in the 1990s, however, no compartments from the construction period were found. The situation is different in the gable at number 47, in which compartments are still filled with straw loam stacks from the construction period. The compartments facing both the courtyard and the street are filled with a mixture of clay, sandstone and bricks.

The house is covered with a high pitched roof .

In 1994, investigations into the original coloring were carried out, which were decisive. It emerged that the two parts of the building had been designed in different ways very early on. The results were implemented in today's facade design. The timber of the framework was originally treated with linseed oil . Certain elements such as beam heads, lugs, fan rosettes as well as the bevelling on the curtain arch profiles and the uprights on both sides of the door and windows were presumably painted red.

In the years 1998 to 2000 the building was renovated. The renovation was carried out gently, from an ecological point of view mainly through the owner's own work. A construction-time, schematic, not to scale construction drawing of the framework of a building was discovered on an infill inside building number 48. It was scratched into the clay plaster and traced in red paint.

The street-side base area of ​​the house was problematic. As the street level had risen over time, moisture penetrated there, with the result that the threshold was rotten. The basic threshold of the house was therefore raised and underpinned with sandstones from the fund of the city of Quedlinburg. The outer walls of the house were provided with internal insulation. A five-centimeter-thick cork plate was installed on the ground floor . The first floor received a stud wall construction with a vapor barrier , into which an insulating material made of cellulose based on old newspaper was blown. On the second floor, the interior insulation consists of a 2.5 centimeter thick clay building board. The doors inside the house come mainly from the municipal fund and were only given a glaze after the restoration .

House Pölle 48 serves as a residential building.

Eastern part - house number 47

House number 47 has a double-leaf gate with a door in the middle. The gate is connected to the side trusses with support brackets. The gate leaves are provided with six filling fields, the corners of which are decorated with corner diamond blocks. The upper halves of the goal have a segmented arch with a block frieze.

The half-timbering on the ground floor and first floor was probably rebuilt in the 19th century. The lugs, which were formerly in the form of rollers, have been removed. However, a wave band has been preserved on the threshold of the first floor. The original row of studs still exists on the second floor, but the parapet and lintel bars have been moved to allow larger windows. The compartments are walled up with bricks. Remnants of formerly existing fan rosettes can still be found on the stands. The original floor plan from the construction period can still be seen on the upper floors. The larger, bright rooms used as living rooms were on the street side, while the utility rooms were arranged on the courtyard. The ground floor was rebuilt in the Baroque period . Later changes were made to the baroque staircase. The railing was given simple turned bars in the 19th century. Further modifications to the ground floor took place in 1913.

Apartments are now housed in the Pölle 47 building.

In the courtyard of the property there is a wing from around 1750. It was rebuilt in the 19th century and in 1932. The property at Pölle 48 had stables.
