The original population of the Schnoor consisted mainly of river fishermen and boatmen. In the epoch of classicism and historicism , most of the often small buildings were built from around 1800 to 1890. In the further course it became a poor people's quarter, which largely fell into disrepair - especially after the Second World War . In 1959 the city passed a statute for the protection of the building stock worth preserving. The houses have been documented and many have been listed as historical monuments since the 1970s. From the 1960s onwards, with the support of the city, renovations, gap closings and renovations took place in the Schnoor.

The two-storey, plastered, eaves-standing house with a gable roof , the visible half-timbering to the street and the simple gable to the Marterburg was built around 1805 in the classicism era and renovated and rebuilt around 1970. Here u lived a. 1860 a cigar maker.
