history

Rechenberg mansion (Feuerbach's house, 1872) in front of the hilltop of the older castle
Feuerbach monument

Between 1524 and 1527, Sebald Rech had his first manor built on the hill as a residential tower with a moat. 1545–1551 the seat belonged to Adolarius Vischer († 1551), from 1551 to his creditors. During the Second Margrave War , the City Council of Nuremberg had the seat burned down in 1552. Later troops of Margrave Albrecht Alcibiades occupied the mountain and shot at Nuremberg from here. In 1553 the Nuremberg council had part of the hilltop removed. A second mansion was built in 1553, belonged to Sebastian Zatzer from 1577, Joachim Kammermeister (Camerarius) from 1589, the Nutzel von Sündersbühl from 1624 , the Ebner von Eschenbach from 1728 , the Kreß von Kressenstein from 1754 , and the Behaim von Schwarzbach from around 1790 on Kirchensittenbach ( Ludwig Feuerbach lived there from 1859 until his death in 1872 ), 1898–1916 the house belonged to the Tucher von Simmelsdorf and the Barth family; In 1916 the seat was demolished.

Towards the end of the 18th century there was an estate in Rechenberg (1 courtyard with inhabited outbuildings). The high court exercised the imperial city of Nuremberg , but this was disputed by the Brandenburg-Bayreuth Oberamt Baiersdorf . The landlord was the Nuremberg owner von Behaim .

As part of the municipal edict, Rechenberg was assigned to the Erlenstegen tax district formed in 1813 . It also belonged to the rural community of Erlenstegen , which was founded in the same year . With the second community edict (1818), Rechenberg was re-incorporated into the newly formed Rennweg rural community . When Rennweg was incorporated into the city of Nuremberg in 1865, the rural community was called Schoppershof . In 1899 this was incorporated into Nuremberg .

In 1860 the philosopher Ludwig Feuerbach moved to the Rechenberg, where a village had developed in the meantime at the gates of the city of Nuremberg, and lived in the aforementioned second manor in the nearby Sulzbacher Strasse until his death on September 13, 1872. In 1930 a cenotaph was donated to him . After the National Socialists came to power, this memorial was removed by decision of the city council in 1933 and was not erected again until 1955.

In the south (Schleiermacherstraße) of the hill, early cooperative row houses were built in 1915, and in the north (Lützowstraße and Nettelbeckstraße) Art Deco buildings were built at the end of the 1920s . In 1930, the Regiomontanus observatory was built as a public observatory with funds from the Nuremberg Physical Society .
