The Wöhler wine house in Schwerin , Schelfstadt , Fischerstraße 2 and Puschkinstraße 26, is a monument in Schwerin and a historic wine and beer house.

history

The Schelfstadt, originally the Schelfe , since 1349 also Neustadt, developed from the 11th century as an initially independent place and from 1705 as a city. Half-timbered houses and palaces were built on the shelf in the early 18th century .

This two-storey half-timbered house was built around 1750 on Fischerstrasse, at the corner of Königsstrasse (today Puschkinstrasse ) at Fischereck, by the Hofkellermeister Braunwald. In 1819 the FA Wöhler wine wholesaler was founded , bought and used the house. Major renovations were carried out and the guest rooms that can still be used today and the wine bar were built.

The Schelfe with over 4100 inhabitants became a district of Schwerin in 1832. In 1895, with a renovation, the historic guest and business premises were expanded.

In 1901, Prince Heinrich of Mecklenburg and the Princess of the Netherlands and of Orange-Nassau and Queen of the Netherlands Wilhelmina celebrated their Schwerin wedding here. In 1908 Wöhler became the "purveyor to the court" of the royal court of the Netherlands and in 1914 purveyor to the court of the Grand Duchess Marie von Mecklenburg-Schwerin and the Imperial and Royal Highness of Crown Prince Wilhelm of Prussia , as husband of Cecilie zu Mecklenburg .

The current decorative facade was created in 1927. The wine house was popular and part of Schwerin's tradition. Tenants have been running the wine house since 1953, which was nationalized in 1959. In the 1970s / 80s, the necessary maintenance work was not carried out on the structure; the house fell into disrepair and was closed in 1983 due to the risk of collapse.

It was not until 1997 that investors found the courage to secure the ailing stock, to initiate structural investigations, to submit applications for urban development funding and to carry out the now extensive necessary renovation measures with subsidized costs of eight million DM by 2001. The top floor was expanded for hotel use and this area was modernized in 2014 and expanded to 12 rooms.
