history

Schnoor 14

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, plastered gable house with a gable roof and the ribbon windows on the upper floor was built around 1600 in the Baroque era . The half-timbered courtyard wing and a transverse building until 1999 date from 1770. On the west side of the house there is a cellar with a 1.80 m deep well. The ground floor, which was still a stable until 1827, was converted into a workshop in the 19th century. Here were u. a. a forge and a joinery. In 1856 a master cutter lived here and in 1904 a clerk and a master carpenter lived here.

The joinery Heinrich Hocke (1899–1963) had been here since 1925. His wife Clara Hocke b. Taphorn (1901–1981) was known as the Mudder Hocke . In 1929 they bought, played and rented the first barrel organ . At times they owned up to 21 barrel organs. The custom of sweeping the Bremer Domshof, later sweeping the cathedral stairs , was mentioned in Bremen around 1890. The barrel organs were often used here. Both of them also roamed the streets in Bremen on weekends (preferably in Neustadt and Walle ) and also in Verden . The Hocke barrel organ rental was here for a long time until the next generation, the Decho-Hocke couple, withdrew; however, barrel organs were still on loan. The house was renovated in the 1970s.

Today (2018) the house and house Schnoor 13 is used by a restaurant ( Schröter’s ) and for living.

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