Wuppertal Remscheider Strasse 45, 2014

The residential and commercial building at Remscheider Strasse 45 is now a listed building in the Bergische city ​​of Wuppertal in North Rhine-Westphalia .

Location and history

The house is on the eastern side of Remscheider Strasse in the district or urban district of Ronsdorf ( urban quarter Ronsdorf-Mitte / Nord ). The building forms a visual unit with the adjacent houses Remscheider Strasse 43 and 47, which were built at about the same time and in the same style . The former monument, Remscheider Strasse 41 , directly to the north, was a slate house that, due to long-term neglect of maintenance, became dilapidated and could no longer be preserved. It was therefore struck from the list of monuments around 2002 , then completely demolished and replaced by a new building. Just a few meters further north are the architectural monuments Remscheider Strasse 33 and 35 . On the opposite side of the street, the houses at Remscheider Strasse 30 and 46, as well as the former Prussian tapestry school ( Remscheider Strasse 50 ) and the nearby Steigerturm Ronsdorf are also listed.

Like the neighboring buildings to the north and south, which are also listed buildings (house numbers 43 and 47), the house was built in the late 19th century (1898).
