The beautiful culture time of the creation of the Art Nouveau buildings in Montabaur

In the small town of Montabaur, which is distinguished by its peaceful location on a ridge that ends at the castle hill and half way to buy a sink that actually do ideal was there in the Middle Ages the central marketplace to create, because there roads converge, can be found here and there, building from the Art Nouveau period. They have their own character and point to a time of cultural development in the German culture, which is determined not by wars. As the lifestyle was in the era of Art Nouveau in Montabaur, is still very difficult to make them traceable. So far been neglected this important time of the 19 and work on early 20th century, the city's history. As for the building history, there are indeed building files of the Prussian time too many buildings in Montabaur, but since they are sewn into fist-thick archival reference files, only a decomposition of the construction documents must be made before they can be edited. Art Nouveau would gather around a lot.

>> Art Nouveau was not just a style of fine art, but also a spiritual movement with its own program, with a group of pioneers, with their own journals and with the intention of not only the visual arts, but the whole modern Life-transforming. "(1) It cultural magazines were published, which must have achieved a great many people. That the ideas of Art Nouveau also to penetrated into the Westerwald, can be recognized by the Art Nouveau buildings, which it not only in Montabaur, but in villages and other towns of the Westerwald is. So far, never documents collected to in order to demonstrate this important cultural phase of the Westerwald. We do not yet know which cultural magazines were read in the Westerwald, and how the spirit of this time in the Central Massif joined the Art Nouveau style.
The architects who designed the art nouveau buildings, wurden bis heute nicht durch wissenschaftliche Abhandlungen den Bewohnern der Dörfer und Städte vorgestellt. Mit anderen Worten: beim Kulturraum des Westerwaldes haben wir es mit einer baugeschichtlichen Brache großen Ausmaßes zu tun. Was hier noch zu bearbeiten ist, sucht seinesgleichen.

Der Westerwald war 1867 an Preußen angeschlossen worden. Aus Anlaß der Kaiserproklamation hatte man in Montabaur das neugotische Rathaus mit Pomp eingeweiht. Später waren Schüler des Gymnasiums der Stadt mit ihrem Lehrer ins Lahntal gewandert, um den Kaiser während seines Aufenthaltes im überaus idyllischen Bad Ems in einer Privataudienz darum zu bitten, ihr Schulgebäude in Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gymnasium umbenennen zu dürfen, which was granted. This emperor was not a fan of Art Nouveau, as he revealed in 1902, clearly an industrial exhibition in Dusseldorf. When they presented him with exquisite Art Nouveau furniture at the exhibition, he became excited..

>> No, no, gentlemen, I refrain from being seasick <<" (2) Den Monarchen störte die geschwungene Linie des Möbeldesigns. Hätte er sich in dem Lebensgefühl des Jugendstils gerne bewegen wollen, wären kriegerische Pläne wohl nie aufgekommen, die ihn später in den Ersten Weltkrieg trieben und ihn um seine Krone brachten.

The life of art nouveau contradicted military conflicts His followers were to peace time ., and wanted harmony in living conditions
Rüdiger Safranski this time has so characterized:

"A whole culture, it is the Wilhelmine is Wilhelm before the tribunal of life ( Dilthey), cited and faced with the question: He lives this life still (3)

had formed in the German Empire, a youth movement that was to change from Nietzsche became popular His radical ideas won followers... not only by Nietzsche, sees it Rüdiger Safranksi, got the word 'life' sound and was mysterious. It had been a renaissance of romantic life and have been addressed, the slogan 'life' against a soulless materialism.

The word 'life' have to "Designing wealth, inventiveness, an ocean of possibilities" connected. Truly a fantasy world created in the Empire auszuwirken when Nietzsche began. Thus, experienced what had to be overcome:

"To Nietzsche's time would look like the bourgeois youth nor old time youth was more of a career disadvantage were advised funds, which allegedly accelerated the growth of beard and the glasses were a status symbol of Man... imitated the fathers and carried the stiff collar, the adolescent is stuck in frock coats and brought them to the measured response. " (4)

then surged to the will to change:

is "But 'life', the impetuous and breaking-like and thus the young people themselves 'Youth' is more a flaw that must be hidden. On the contrary: The age should warrant now, it is suspected, dead and frozen to be "(5)

It was so very suddenly in the Art Nouveau period probably had in Montabaur these contradictions.. felt made, and the stiff Wilhelmine, Prussian, but small provincial world of the minute at this time small town of Montabaur was also opposed to a lively Art Nouveau. The buildings themselves have evidence of this process will in Montabaur, across Europe with an impact on the other continents took place.

The desire of the artists that brought this style and worked out for high art, bildete die seelische Grundlage, die Einheit von Kunst und Leben zu verwirklichen. Was sie ausdrückten, war das Lebensgefühl einer Zeit, in der nach Schönheit gestrebt wurde, in der man endlich eine neue Wirtschaftsethik erreichen wollte, und in der Versuche unternommen wurden, eine Ära sozialer Gerechtigkeit anbrechen zu lassen.

Wir wissen noch nicht, wie es zu dieser Zeit des Jugendstils im Westerwald zuging. Aber es dürfte auch hier eine Zeit angebrochen gewesen sein, in der man für Musik und bildende Kunst sehr aufgeschlossen war und sich auch nach einer Architektur sehnte, die in Harmonie mit einer schön arrangierten Natur vorhanden sein sollte. Es könnte eine Zeit schönster Gärten have been around the houses, also a time when many avenues were planted. Such an avenue of lime trees dragged on as the entire upper edge of the forest road up to the Koblenz at the junction for Horressen. It was after the Second World War destroyed meaningless, just a nondescript rest of it has remained close to the spit pond.

The expression of life, had brought the art nouveau style in this small town gave way after the Second World War, the effects of a cold functionalism, in which the automobile caused a new context, which destroyed the historic inner city in many areas and the landscape around this small town completely overdeveloped.

Whether Notes to find that was read in Montabaur the influential journal Youth <>
, which was founded in 1896 and found many readers, is uncertain. In the founding manifesto of this newspaper it is, youth is "joy of existence, capacity for pleasure, hope and love, faith in man", as she is "Color, form and light." All urged the formal repertoire of interesting and beautiful colors on buildings and in the interior, and in the gardens.

So far it is still difficult to know, drew on examples which the architects of the Art Nouveau buildings in Montabaur, which buildings they were very impressed especially wanted them come at the concentration of this quality, as they designed their buildings. Also still missing the names of the architects who created the buildings. It is to invest in a large processing time in order to understand the architectural history correlations in the Westerwald, an effort that has so far found no equivalent.
There were centers of Art Nouveau. One was impressed by an exhibition in Vienna in Glasgow artist and architect who had developed a modern, which surprised everyone. The experience was contagious. The same quality of own work should be completed in Vienna. In Dresden, Henry van der Velde was presented with an exhibition, and found admirers. Just as quickly formed in Brussels, Paris, Darmstadt and elsewhere centers of the new art style out where furniture design, glass design, new ceramics and graphics created and found all of this has been reflected in the architecture. This cultural change must have reached the Westerwald on newspapers and cultural journals. One may wonder how he has reached the people here, and what he achieved everything.

What Is The Life Expectancy Of Wegners Disease

On Wall Street the synagogue

The Wall Street is actually an urban planning mistake. moved only a few meters away from town, they would have allowed it to keep the moat to the city wall. Why was this not done, can only be justified on the grounds that the decision makers in Government and elsewhere, it was not to keep the ring of medieval walls around the city in honor. date fehlen noch die genaueren Hinweise auf die Entstehungsgeschichte dieser Straße, an der einige Stadtvillen und große Stadthäuser entstanden. Am Rande dieser Straße kam auch die Synagoge der jüdischen Bevölkerung der Stadt zum Bau. Die meisten Hinweise auf dieses Gebäude wurden vernichtet. Während des Dritten Reiches wurde das Gebäude in Brand gesteckt. Man hätte sich direkt nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg mit dem Bauwerk beschäftigen müssen, um noch zu sichern, was an Archivalien und anderen Hinweisen vorhanden war. Dies wurde jedoch unterlassen.

Heute steht auf dem Gelände, auf dem diese dreijochige Synagoge stand, ein Hallengebäude, das von einer ehemaligen Auto Sales Company was established, which also undertook repairs to the cars when they were necessary. It is possible that can make the foundation remains of the synagogue in the hall find.

can be in a site plan, which was due to a house sale in Station Road to be used to identify precisely the location of this synagogue. It must be clear about 10m wide and have had a length of perhaps about 17m. One thinks at the sight of the building on a modified Gothic Revival, was built. Instead of the pointed arches arches were elected. The panel layout is very simple and regular. The main facade was to emphasize a tower-like structure that looms over the pediment, with a circular arc concludes, on the aims to wrought iron tip to the sky.

To the synagogue seems to be a sufficiently large green area to have been created. When the synagogue after the arson fell into ruin, it is probably the building rubble in the nearby town ditch at Wolf Storm have managed to populate the area. Detailed evidence is lacking. It can behave so differently. Since that time were in the bricks still walled up with lime mortar, also had offered a reuse of the bricks. Evidence will be lacking so far.

The few photos and the map appear to be the only evidence of this building that could be completed by the building remains, if one were to find the foundations of the synagogue. I therefore proposed to excavate the synagogue, by opening the ground hall of the former car repair workshop to identify the exact location. Then in the hall could be given to a museum for local history, or the city archives finds its place here.

Most of the buildings on this street are part of the urban expansion that is related to the abandoning of the city gates in the Biedermeier period. First was the road to Limburg led around the castle hill, then you put the access roads to the Tiergarten district. Finally emerged in time the great town houses on Wall Street. Particularly impressive is a neo-Gothic brick villa with a beautiful Stone veneer of fine ceramics, so-called Quartier stones, which should give the buildings an impressive facade.

One will have to deal with all these buildings precisely because they are great treasures, and with them an important phase of urban development was continued.

find a building with mansard roof, as well as such to which a tower was to emphasize the residential character of one of the edges of the building, built from brick. Also arisen at that time in the historicist architecture timber floor can be seen. For other buildings can be seen, the original state is less accurate in its portfolio. It would have to read the building plans can be evaluated, in order to know which architect who built the relevant buildings when. A similar quality of the building to meet in the other towns of the Westerwald. It is urgently necessary to provide such buildings in a settlement.

As the Wall Street law is short and only a few buildings are on the road, you would very quickly can get a good look into what was built on architecture. First, however, the records are found to the buildings in order to evaluate it.
