Wiesbaden, Mainz

(3) Spa from 1902-07 at night
The first major research residence for promotion led me to Wiesbaden. There, I treat the Kurplatz composed of Kaiser-Friedrich-Platz (formerly Theater and William place), Bowling Green and spa resort (formerly Cursaalplatz) includes (1-2). The square is framed by large colonnades. Kaiser-Friedrich-Platz is the heavily shaped neo-baroque building is the Hotel Nassauer Hof . On the other side of the square lies the spa of the Munich architect Friedrich von Thiersch (1902-07).

(6) fountain in the park
Unfortunately, taken in the Second World War, the building authority, with all construction documents were destroyed. Therefore I could only search the Civil Engineering Department. There I will take another look over, because the time was not enough wealth to sift through the files. Many things you have to look for these files together and reconstruct, for example on plaster and duct work.
(7) Mary Help of Christians Church in the northwest of the city
(8) Holy Trinity Church in the southern
In the city archives, there were also many interesting documents, such As the Treaty with Friedrich von Thiersch to build the spa of 1902 (3) and the transcript of a lecture by Joseph Stubben on urban planning in Wiesbaden in 1917. In an act was a great exchange of letters of the resort director Ferdinand Hey'l (4) to the local planning Lemcke from the 1880s. There, too, I'll still look at least once over.
(9) side elevation of the market church
(10) The main facade of the market church in the evening
(11) twin-tower facade of St. Boniface Church
addition, I have still in the Hessian State Library (construction 1913) Special excerpted some older literature. It even gave a tour through the house, where we have also got the magazines shown. As a constant reference point acts in Wiesbaden, the many-towered church market (9-10) by Carl Boos (1853-62). The rest of the time I made extensive forays into Wiesbaden and seen a lot. Nevertheless, I will next time still have much to visit. I found interesting include the Mary Help of Christians Church of Max Meckel, who planned including the Frankfurter Römer .
(12) Main entrance to the ring church (on the back of the west)
(13) Ring Church from inside (the central space with galleries)
(14) Road crossing in the mountain church district overlooking the city
(15) crossing tower of the Hill Church
A few Impressions of my tours give the photos I took with the new camera. First, I watched the Ringkirche of Johannes Otzen, who played as Programmbau in connection with the Wiesbaden program, which has replaced the regulative Eisenach, an important role. Among other things, I have my mountain church quarters (14-15), the Southern City (16-17), the historic pentagon, the houses on the street Dozheimer (18) and the residential area on the Bierstadter slope (see also " new Wiesbaden ") considered (19). On the way back I made a brief stopover in Mainz. However, there was only time for a short stroll through the city.
