history

Grabenstrasse is part of Carlstadt , which was laid out from 1784 when the previous old city fortifications were laid down in the south of Wallstrasse and in the east of the citadel. The new road was laid on the filled-in trenches of the protective waters in front of the city wall and the first buildings in the area of ​​Grabenstrasse were erected after 1787. The building No. 4 built on the street was one of these first new buildings and was the second house next to the corner building No. 2 with Mittelstraße. In 1880, the residential and commercial building housed a drug, chemical, dye u. Materialwaarenhdlg (Wilhelm Blankenberg), in 1885 a men's clothing and cloth shop (Wilhelm Weinberg) and in 1886 the glove factory of “de Haen”. The latter was also the owner of the building at the time. The Mangold brothers, who also ran a glove factory in the building at Grabenstrasse 9 in the mid-1880s , bought the commercial building at Grabenstrasse 4 from “de Haen-Constanjen” in 1888 and had it converted. From 1889 their glove factory with a tie store was relocated to the acquired and converted building. In the same building there is evidence of a fur shop owned by the siblings Clara and Emma Schwenkenberg from 1886 to 1889 . As early as 1890 by 1891 the fur shop was replaced by the hardware store of the dealer "HJ L Bäumen".

From 1892 until 1901 the Mangold brothers owned their glove factory in house no.4. After that they remained the owners but gave up the factory and lived at Schadowstrasse 23. In 1940 the heirs of the Mangold brothers were named as the owners of house no.4 . From 1902 the court gunsmith Karl Guntermann had his branch in building no. 4. In 1940 this company was still headed at this location. In addition, Ludwig Vigener's pharmacy (1902) and ophthalmologist Otto Müller's practice (1909) rented rooms in the building.

Location and surroundings

The building was on Grabenstrasse, where other commercial buildings such as the S. Guttmann & Cie. (Grabenstrasse 15). The street - planned by Adolph von Vagedes in the style of French classicism - was framed by corner buildings, the façades of the buildings in between were summarized by a wide main cornice.

"V. Chapter. The Düsseldorf residential house from the beginning of the 19th century until the founding renaissance [...] An old depiction of Grabenstrasse shows how Vagedes thought the new Düsseldorf [...] The residential houses framed by these corner buildings put the pilasters and gable decorations aside, but lead through the wide main cornice of the two corner buildings, as they also assume their floor heights. Unfortunately nothing of this uniform street scene has survived today. But also the other Düsseldorf street pictures, based on the urban planning ideas of Vagedes, are either only preserved in old photographs or disfigured by later interventions [...] The corner house Schwanenmarkt and Südstrasse is again related to the corner houses on Grabenstrasse (panels 61–62). "

history

The house at Grabenstrasse 4 in Düsseldorf was originally built for Laurenz Lensch, whose widow, a pensioner, lived at Oberbilker Strasse 985 in 1850. In 1865 the house belonged to Heinrich Borchardt, a pensioner. In the same year, the commissioner JW Krahforst lived at Grabenstrasse 4. In 1880, Wilhelm Blankenberg ran a drug, chemical, dye u. Material goodshdlg . In 1885 Wilhelm Weinberg ran a men's clothing and cloth shop in the house . The Mangold brothers ran a glove factory and a tie warehouse in the house in 1889. The owner was Theodor Mangold. Mangold ran the same shop at Schadowstrasse 23 . In 1889 the commissioner Ewald Ravenstein also lived in the house. Clara Schwenkenberg, who ran a fur business in the house, also lived in the house.

architecture

The house was built at the beginning of the 19th century. Josef Kleesattel pays particular attention to the interior design, such as the Empire-style staircase - "the beautiful raised stair post deserves special attention". Paul Sültenfuss also shows the staircase from the beginning of the 19th century in the chapter Das Düsseldorfer Wohnhaus from the beginning of the 19th century to the time of the founder renaissance . The Düsseldorf architects and engineers' association paid tribute to the facade design and the floor plan of the house, which was converted in 1888 for the Mangold brothers based on designs by the architects Jacobs & Wehling . The building belonged to a group of commercial buildings - selected by the Düsseldorf architects and engineers association - "which are of particular interest in terms of floor plan development or frontal design, as well as those that appear to be important for the development of the commercial building in Düsseldorf."
