Wulf Götze (also Wulf Gotze or Wulf Goetze , * 1593 , † March 25, 1667 in Quedlinburg ) was a carpenter. He created several still preserved and the World Heritage Site belonging timbered building in Quedlinburg.

Life

Götzes is considered to be the pioneer of the more modern Quedlinburg half-timbered style in the second half of the 17th century. His buildings are characterized by the fact that the half-timbered stands are evenly spaced. He also used parapet struts and, in his last known building in 1653, the figure of the half man in the outskirts . For the first time, the pyramid beam heads typical of Quedlinburg half-timbered architecture appear . While he initially used rich renaissance jewelry, he later achieved a more objective, technical design. The St. John's Church in Halberstadt , however, is designed conservatively, although this may be due to the client's wishes.

The marriage of a Salome , "Wulf Götzens filia" and thus probably Götzens daughter, to the carpenter Andreas Schröder in the old town of Quedlinburg is recorded for September 24th 1650 . Götze died on March 25, 1667 at the age of 74 in the old town of Quedlinburg.

buildings

The following buildings by Götze are known:

Götze's participation in the Gildehaus zur Rose , which was built in 1612, is presumed , although in some cases he is only given for this. However, it would have been only about 19 years old at the time of construction. The same applies to the house at Lange Gasse 29 , built in 1614 , on which the initials WG can be found. The house at Blasiistrasse 2 , which was built in 1650, probably also came from Götze.
