The von Spörcken'sche Haus in Hanover was a building erected in the 18th century for the noble von Spörcken family at Schmiedestrasse 31 and 32 .

history

The two plots of the houses under the designation M. No. 150 and 151 in the lap register of the city of Hanover were already combined by their owner Henning Anton Schultze at the beginning of the Electorate of Hanover in the years 1698 to 1699, but only developed uniformly later.

In 1764, the Schultze's heirs initially only sold house number 151 to the Countess Yarmouth , who, however, died the following year. Her son, then Major General Johann Ludwig von Wallmoden-Gimborn, kept the inherited house in his possession for another six years. During this time, von Wallmoden's master gardener JF Walter drew a site plan of the property, which also took into account the garden in the courtyard of the building. The drawing later came into the Wallmodensche family archive .

In 1769 property number 151 and in 1776 property number 150 from the property of the merchant Sievers to the treasurer Georg Ludwig von Spörcken .

In the following year, 1777, von Spörcken had a stately new building built over both properties. The architect has not yet been identified, but “in the archive of the Freiherrlich v. Spörcken's administration in Lüdersburg “various contracts with craftsmen and descriptions of the internal structure of the building. The exterior of the building remained completely unchanged for more than half a century, until it was "decisively changed" on the ground floor in 1841 at the time of the Kingdom of Hanover .

Around that time, the hardware wholesaler JC Hagemann , founded in 1830, first moved to Schmiedestraße 31. At the latest after the company had also acquired the neighboring house at number 32 in 1910, the entire ground floor was provided with several entrances and a fully glazed shop window front.

By the end of the Weimar Republic , Hagemann had also considerably expanded the storage space of the property, which was now used as a commercial building with a warehouse, so that the floor area of ​​the approximately 1500 m² buildings was almost 57 meters in line with Osterstrasse.

Building description

The former von Spörckensche house was built on three floors with eleven axes . On the first floor of the slightly advanced central risalit with its three window axes, both the house entrance and the passage to the courtyard were crowded together. The central projection concluded with a triangle gable , where the crest of the von Spörcken in a winning Louis XVI - cartridge was installed, and two lions as a sign holder .

While the cuboids , pilaster strips , cornices and frames were made of sandstone , the building was plastered over the entire area. Only in the central projecting were "the frames more richly furnished, mostly with horizontal, console-supported sill roofs."

The house was covered with a high pitched roof with dormers on both sides of the central projectile.

Towards the end of the 1920s, the monument conservator Arnold Nöldeke found “ nothing noteworthy” inside the building, “apart from the stairwells ”.
