.jpg)
The courtyard facility Zur Mühle 2 is located in the Wickrath - Buchholz district in Mönchengladbach ( North Rhine-Westphalia ).
The building was built in 1732 and entered into the monuments list of the city of Mönchengladbach on April 18, 2005 under No. Z 003 .
location
The courtyard is located immediately south of the area where the street "Zur Mühle" joins Laurentiusstraße in Buchholz.
architecture
The three-sided brick / half-timbered courtyard , the fourth side modern closed with a sand-lime brick wall. Gable-independent , two-axis and two-storey residential building with a remarkably large clearance height for a building of this age on the ground floor of the residential building. Subsequent towing at the west eaves under a raised roof with lowered ceiling beams above the ground floor and therefore lower room heights.
Half-hip roof on the side of the road, renewed roofing (Rhineland tiles). At a right angle to this, the gatehouse connects with the stable building , which is not windowed to the street, under a clay tile roof (Rhineland tiles). The inner courtyard, parallel to the house, is bordered by the large drive-through barn with a gable roof , which has a temporary covering made of onduline panels. The former two-tier horse stable under a pent roof adjoins them to the south .
Residential building
Street-side gable wall in brick , presumably later faded in front of the half-timbered gable. Wall anchors date the gable to the year 1732. The flat plastered spray plinth extends almost to the lower edge of the sills (brick roll layer) of the ground floor windows. On the ground floor there are two arched French casement windows with skylights , they can be closed by two-part shutters .
On the far right of the towing system, another window opening that was later walled up can be seen. Above that follows a cornice that separates floors and is elaborately designed as a " German band ". On the upper floor there are three smaller arched, single-leaf lattice windows with one-piece shutters. Above it again a cornice separating storeys, also designed as a "German band". In the attic there are two small arched windows with lattice wings to illuminate the attic. The gable ends with "Dutch triangles" to the roof surfaces. The outer eaves wall on the back side is made of brick with four arched windows and two-part shutters.
The eaves wall on the courtyard side consists of stud / bolt framework , the mortised anchor beams are secured by mortise locks with a wedge each. The lying compartments are made of strikingly strong woods. The strong stands are stiffened by long curly struts that extend over a floor. The half-timbered wall is protected by a wide roof overhang. Most of the window openings on the ground floor of the courtyard wall have been enlarged without regard to scale. A beautiful door from the 19th century has been preserved, which leads into the generously proportioned, centrally located and representative hallway. Living rooms on both sides of the corridor, the living room on the street and the living room and kitchen on the other side.
A steep wooden staircase with turned balusters and handrail leads from the hall to the upper floor. Wooden panel doors to the living room with glass insert. Two high vaulted cellars made of brick, each accessed from the courtyard side through an entrance. In the cellar on the street, the old well shaft connected to the courtyard pump was preserved. At the corner of the house there is a small niche with a Madonna and the inscription "1852".
Farm buildings
The gatehouse, which is closed by a double-leaf gate, is adjacent to the former cowshed, which was subsequently converted into a pigsty. The exterior of the street facing the street is made of brick at the bottom and has no windows, and at the top as a half-timbered construction with brick sheds. The courtyard side is made of half-timbered construction with a wide roof overhang, with the ground floor showing modern cement plaster. Originally the stable had three entrances here, but only the middle one remained.
On the upper floor there are former mining rooms that are connected to the courtyard via a hatch. The cross barn has half-timbered outer walls that are lined with bricks. The inner frame made of oak and spruce is largely completely preserved. A further overhang of the gable roof covered with onduline panels protects the framework construction. The two large double-winged gates that lead to the central antenna, on the sides of which are the mountain rooms, are striking. On the courtyard side, the transversely divided gate is flanked on both sides by a small door that leads to the former small cattle stalls on the ground floor. The brick stable is more recent and offered space for two horses. Its monopitch roof slopes down steeply to the southern orchard meadow . The former manure disposal was removed in the middle of the inner courtyard .
The object is important for human history, for cities and settlements and for the history of rural working and production conditions. There are scientific, in particular architectural, site and settlement history as well as urban planning reasons for its preservation and use.
