history

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-story, set back, plastered, narrow gabled house with a gable roof , a long eaves side facing the Marterburg and a gable facing the street Hinter der Balge was built in 1968. The top of the gable is decorated with a stone crown. A previous building with the same floor plan had to be demolished. The portal dates from the 17th century. Two coats of arms from around 1600 with an inscription are on the outside of the extension. A field stone on the front surface comes from the Bremen city wall from after 1229, which ran not far from the Marterburg.

In the neighborhood on the small forecourt is the Schnoor 2 packing house , which is closely connected to this house.
Today (2018) the two houses with the Ausspann plaque are used by an artist house with refugee offers , culture, courses and gastronomy.

The Low German street name Schnoor ( Snoor ) means cord: Here the houses are lined up like a string. However, the name refers to the ship's craft and the manufacture of ropes and ropes (= cord).
