The Landauer department store on Kaiserstraße in Heilbronn existed from 1911 to the second half of the 1930s. The building goes back to two commercial buildings in Kaiserstraße 46 and 48, which were built in 1905/06 according to plans by the architects Emil Beutinger and Adolf Steiner (no. 46) and Adolf Braunwald (no. 48) and combined into one building in 1913. In 1928 the Jewish owners also acquired a shop in the neighboring building No. 44. The department store was “ Aryanized ” in 1936 and taken over by the businessman Andreas Beilharz. The buildings were destroyed in the air raid on December 4, 1944 .

history

Before Kaiserstraße was redesigned into a thoroughfare in 1897, the property at Kaiserstraße 48 had the address Presencegasse 8. When the houses were counted in 1855, it was given the number 33A. The building that was once there was an eaves-standing, classicist building with a dwelling. At Kaiserstraße 46 (formerly Presencegasse 6, house census 1855: No. 25) was once the parsonage of the first city pastor, who bought the city in 1474 as a preacher's apartment. In 1863 the Franconian half-timbered building came into private ownership.

After the renovation of Kaiserstrasse, representative buildings of the time were built on many of the old plots. At Kaiserstraße 48, a commercial building for the merchants Emil and Reinhold Joos was built in 1905/06 according to plans by the architect Braunwald. The building housed the Joos real estate and mortgage business and the Gustav Barasch department store . The shop window facade was designed by the blacksmith August Stotz . At the same time, the art dealer Heinrich Grünwald had a commercial building built on the neighboring property on the right (Kaiserstraße 46) according to plans by the architects Beutinger and Steiner. It had a facade with yellowish-white flamed sandstone from Klingenmünster . There were shop windows next to a through gate on the first floor. The second floor had wide windows with cantilevered balconies between double columns, while the third and fourth floors had double windows that were divided by narrow pillars and partially provided with balconies. The building was received many times. The architects Beutinger and Steiner also planned the house Fleischmann at Kaiserstraße 50 , which was renovated at the same time and adjoining the building group Kaiserstraße 46/48 .

In 1911 the Barasch department store was taken over by the Landauer company. The Jewish owners Max Kaufmann, Sigmund Kaufmann as well as Louis Landauer (Stuttgart) and Karl Landauer (Göppingen) also acquired the neighboring building at Kaiserstraße 46 and had the buildings structurally connected. The architect Ludwig Bauer planned the renovation . Building no. 46 was given a facade design adapted to the previous department store, while the original facade of building no. 46 in Roßkampffstraße 4 was used again, where it is now a listed building.

In 1928 the brothers Landauer acquired also the business for women's and children's clothing by Max Mayer and his wife Frieda Adler in the neighboring house Kaiserstraße 44, 1899 together with the Kaiser Straße 42 as semi-detached for the heirs of Andreas Mössinger designed by Heinrich straw built had been.

On April 1, 1933, the National Socialists called for a boycott of Jews in front of the Landauer department store and other Jewish shops in Heilbronn . On April 25, 1933, at around 5.15 p.m., a bomb attack was carried out on the Jewish department store. As part of the "Aryanization" in 1938, the businessman Andreas Beilharz took over the department store.

The building was destroyed in World War II. From 1945 to 1951 there was a reimbursement procedure for the department store Kaiserstraße 46-48 (previous owner: Max Kaufmann). This ended with a severance payment by the city and Andreas Beilharz as part of a settlement . Beilharz, who acquired the property from the city, had a new department store built at the same location at Kaiserstraße 46-48, which operated there until 2000. The Beilharz department store building was demolished in 2007 in favor of the Klosterhof shopping center, which opened in 2009 .
