history

The baker Carl Adolf Theodor Günther applied in November 1896 to be allowed to demolish the restoration building he had built at the intersection in 1864 and replace it with a new building. The application was not granted due to the size of the planned new building. In the following summer the master bricklayer F. A. Bernhard made large plans for a smaller corner building. This was approved in April 1898 with the exception of §3 of the local building regulations of Kötzschenbroda . In July 1898 the notification of completion of the shell and the application for admission to the fire fund were issued ; the building inspection of December 1898 took place without any major objections.

For the Lößnitzbahn , a narrow-gauge overland tram that was extended from Mickten to the Meißner Strasse / Moritzburger Strasse intersection at the end of 1899 , the waiting room was located in the beer-standing hall of the in-house restaurant.

The baker Curt Guenther settled after December 1916 by the Dresden architect Curt Reimer the ground floor apartment and basement of a restaurant Wettin house rooms shared with the corner entrance for a Depositenkasse of Dresdner Bank to rebuild. During the GDR era, a branch of the State Bank of the GDR was housed there; today, Deutsche Bank has offices there .

The Stolpersteine ​​in Moritzburger Strasse

Curt Günther also owned the adjacent two-story building, which he had replaced in 1924 by the residential and commercial building at Moritzburger Strasse 3 .

On July 26, 2005, five stumbling blocks in memory of the Jewish Freund family, who were deported to the Theresienstadt ghetto or the Auschwitz concentration camp and murdered there, were laid in front of the residential building entrance at Moritzburger Straße 1 as part of the project of the same name .
