Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse
The Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse is an alley in the old town of Salzburg , which leads from the Kranzlmarkt and Rathausplatz to the Franciscan Church. The eastern part of the alley was once called Milchgasse (also Milichgaßen) up to Churfürststrasse, the western part Pfarrgasse, Abtgasse or Kirchgasse. The alley was built around 1140 when the Franciscan church became a parish church. Before about 1620, the alley closed off the town to the west to the large women's garden of the St. Petersfrauen convent (located between Kollegienkirche, Hofstallgasse and Karajanplatz).
Gasthaus zum Elefanten
(Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse 4, today Hotel zum Elefant)
As early as 1442, the house was named "Lienpacher's house in the milichgassen against the frongarten". In 1607, Hanns Guetfertinger appears as the first innkeeper in this house. The small marble relief was designed according to the miraculous image of Maria Taferl and bears the inscription "Mary pain of Tafferl 1711".
The building was first mentioned as the Gasthof zum Elefanten around 1800. However, the name refers to an incident in the 16th century (1552). At that time, Archduke Maximilian II of Austria, then governor of Spain and later Roman-German emperor, and his bride for the wedding of King John III. Portugal gave an elephant named Soliman . On their way home from Spain to the royal seat of Vienna, Maximilian II and his wife had to interrupt their journey in 1552 due to illness in Wasserburg and in Mühldorf am Inn, then in Salzburg. In Wasserburg, the Salzburg citizen Hans Goldeisen was also entrusted with the care of the elephant. This Hans Goldeisen bought the house at Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse 4 four years later. Because the elephant Soliman was the first known elephant in Central Europe, the then little-known and legendary animal caused a sensation.
Haffnerhaus
(Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse 6)
The house, which is already mentioned in 1434, appears as the Leimprucherhaus in 1617. The daughter of the eponymous Leimprucher married the rich merchant, mayor and patron Sigmund Haffner the Elder around 1733 . Ä. His son Sigmund Haffner d. J. , who also lived in this house, later bequeathed 300,000 guilders to the city. Above the representative marble baroque part there is a wrought-iron lunette grille, the designation “17 SH 41” and a baroque medallion depicting Saint Mary with child.
Lamberghaus
(Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse 8, "called Grienau from ancient times")
This house, which is first mentioned in a document in 1424, was redesigned from originally two houses under the well-known Elsenheimer family around 1500. It has a very neat Renaissance arcade courtyard with graceful round columns made of red Adnet marble , a limestone . Built over on the ground floor, there are arched arcades on the first floor and lintels on the floors above. The Federal Monuments Office is also located on the 2nd floor of the Lamberghaus.
Gusettihaus
(Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse 7–9)
The late medieval house, which at that time was always owned by respected and wealthy families, was bought under Archbishop Ernst von Bayern in 1540 and used as a Hofbräuhaus ("Kaltpierhaus", "Prew zu Hof"). The old vaults in the cellar may have served as beer storage rooms. In 1654 the Hofbräu was relocated again, but a tavern remained in house 7, while house 9 was temporarily used as the "Collegium Rupertinum". In 1769 house no. 7–9 became a trading house under the Gusetti family. Around 1800 the once well-known Salzburg lawyer and statesman Johann Franz Thaddäus von Kleinmayrn (1733–1805) lived in this house, who was court councilor and member of the archbishop's conference under Prince Archbishop Colloredo , and also the author of articles on the history of Salzburg.
Ritzerhaus
(Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse 10, today Höllrigl bookstore at ground level )
The Ritzerhaus or Ritzerbogenhaus was first mentioned as early as 1294 when Rudbrecht Aufner bought the house. At times the house was also called Haunspergerhaus. As early as 1620 there was a small gate into the women's garden of the St. Peter monastery women . A new large arch has existed here since 1626, which serves to improve the development of the newly built university. In 1647 the Ritz ( Rüzen ) family owned the house, from this family the house and the Ritzerbogen to Universitätsplatz got its current name. Noteworthy is the old house chapel in a round tower in the inner courtyard, which was supposedly built by the sovereign in 1653 as compensation for the loss of space caused by the construction of the Ritzerbogen. There has been a bookstore here since 1492 (Kerber bookstore, later Höllrigl), the oldest bookstore in what is now Austria and the second oldest in the German-speaking area. Franz Michael Vierthaler set up the first Salzburg teacher training institute here in 1790. After 1770 the Ritzerhaus was briefly owned by the two orphanage foundations and was run as a printing house ("orphanage printing house"). From 1789 the "Duylesche Druckerei" was located here.
From 1788 the "Oberdeutsche Allgemeine Literaturzeitung" and the "Oberdeutsche Staatszeitung" were printed here by Lorenz Huebner and Schelle. (Upper German here means Bavaria, Salzburg and Austria). The Jesuit priest and personal confidante of Archbishop Hieronymus von Colloredo Father Lorenz Hübner and his colleague Schelle campaigned for far-reaching Catholic church reform (including rapprochement with the Protestant church, abolition of compulsory celibacy for priests). In the well-known literary circle there, also headed by Father Lorenz Huebner, there were several dozen German magazines and thus almost all periodical German-language publications as well as numerous enlightened publications that were regularly discussed here. Lorenz Hübner not only worked here, he also lived in this house with Michael Vierthaler (before 1800 director of the German schools of the Archbishopric) and other living quarters until he moved into the Collegienschlössl on Mönchsberg around 1795.
Dachsbergerhof
(Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse 12)
The house (also Baron Pranckh House) is first mentioned in 1365, but probably dates from around 1140. The building with its stately character and the comparatively large arcaded courtyard was in the immediate vicinity of the Prince Archbishop's residence. As a result, important Salzburg families always lived in this house (Keuzl, Dachsberger, Tauner and the Robinig family, who were friends with Mozart). The current shape of the inner courtyard dates from the late 16th century, the facade facing the alley was built around 1800. A small marble plaque on the house indicates that the famous musicologist and Mozart researcher Erich Schenk was born in this house on May 5th, 1902 .
Cheuzlein's house
(Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse 14)
First mentioned in 1365 as Cheutzlein's house, this building is a typical manorial building with a large arcade courtyard. Important families from Salzburg have always lived here. The Keuzl family lived here from the 14th to the early 16th century, then the Dachsbergers, then the Trauners and last but not least the Robinig family, who were close friends with Mozart. The facade of the house dates from around 1800.
Langenhof
(Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse 16)
The Langenhof was built on the site of three earlier residential buildings, one of which belonged to Prince Archbishop Matthäus Lang von Wellenburg , which was called "des Langenhof ", from which the current name of the house is derived. The Lords of Kuchl (Kuchler) and later the Aufner also had their stables here. The Kapellknaben (Domsängerknaben) in the Kapellmeisterhaus, who last lived with their Preceptor in the middle house, moved to house no.20 around 1670.
The Langenhof was a dominant aristocratic palace in Salzburg. It was built around 1670 by Archbishop Max Gandolf von Kuenburg for his close family members with its large, representative arcade courtyard and the two segmented arched portals made of white marble . From 1713 the courtyard was used as the “Count's Kuenburg Palatium” (palace). JG Laschensky gave the Adelshof its new, artistically successful facade around 1800. The roof of the house, which was very typical in the past - also in Salzburg - is very well preserved.
The ornate marble sculpture of a Romanesque lion in the entrance to the courtyard of the southern portal is noteworthy, presumably from the Romanesque cathedral demolished by Wolf Dietrich von Raitenau .
Kapellhaus
(Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse 20).
The former high ducal chapel house was founded by Prince Archbishop Wolf Dietrich and acquired for this by the St. Peter monastery. According to the inscription, Archbishop Max Gandolf von Kuenburg had it adapted for the new use as the house of the Kapellknaben in 1677. In this usually 16 boys (mainly singing boys or cathedral choir boys) were trained free of charge, especially musically. Prince Archbishop Harrach had an organ built by Johann Christoph Egedacher for the chapel there in 1723 . The chapel boys' uniform consisted of a coat, skirt and waistcoat made of brown cloth with red lining, around their necks they had to wear a kind of priestly collar made of light blue linen. Your garden for relaxation was on Mönchsberg next to Edmundsburg (now part of the Festspielhaus).
After Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber was appointed court conductor on March 6, 1684 , he moved as director of the Kapellhaus from his previous house in Judengasse to this house, where he lived until 1690, then he moved to the Sigmund-Haffner house -Gasse 3, where Biber finally died on May 3, 1704. In addition to Biber, the Kapellhaus u. a. also Johann Ernst Eberlin , Anton Cajetan Adlgasser , Leopold Mozart and Michael Haydn .
In 1812 the chapel house was converted into a cathedral boys 'institute and the school teachers' seminar, which was located in Mülln, was housed in it from November 1, 1812. From 1841 to 1880 the Mozarteum music school (then part of the Cathedral Music Association) was also housed here, where rehearsals for the Cathedral Music Association also took place. In 1922 the Domsingknabengruppe was dissolved and a dormitory was set up here, which still exists today as a dormitory for the Catholic students.
There is a coat of arms of Archbishop Kuenburg above the arched portal of the house. The house otherwise has a simple facade with few decorative elements.
Lodronisch Rupertinisches Collegium ("Rupertinum")
(Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse 22)
The "Collegium Rupertinum" was donated by Archbishop Paris von Lodron a few months before his death in 1653 and rebuilt in the same year with the involvement of a previous building. This building was intended for around 12 to 14 young people studying and was consecrated in honor of St. Rupert . It was under the supervision of a clerical prefect. This Lodron foundation was his last and took place just three months before his death on September 22nd, 1653. The pupils here wore trousers, vests and coats of gray cloth. After the university was closed, it was partly used privately and later used as a student residence until 1974. In 1976 the house was purchased by the State of Salzburg, renovated in the following years and redesigned for museum purposes while preserving the old substance as much as possible. Today the Rupertinum serves as a museum with a diverse collection of modern art. In Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse, this house has a marble coat of arms of Archbishop Paris Lodron .
