Hamburg, GERMANY - Alsterpavillon

Description: Hamburg, GERMANY - Alsterpavillon - 1920: The Alsterpavillon is a building in Hamburg, where a traditional café was located in front of the current restaurant. The Alsterpavillon is located on the Jungfernstieg , a promenade along the Binnenalster. The first Alster pavilion was opened on 20 August 1799 by the Frenchman Augustin Lancelot de Quatre Barbes. Two years later in May 1801, the pastry chef Richard Ruben came from Grisons. In 1809 he left the Alster Pavilion to his brother Donat Ruben, who led him until his death in 1828. Johannes Sprecher, who, like his predecessors, came from Switzerland, had a respectable pavilion built in classicist style in 1835. After his death in 1844 took over the pavilion first speaker's son Franz Dürst, then from 1848 to 1874, his son Heinrich spokesman. After a design by the Hamburg architect Martin Haller, the lessee Johannes Schwarting had the existing pavilion rebuilt and expanded in 1874 and 1876. Due to an extension of the Jungfernstieges, a new building was built in 1900 according to a design by Wilhelm Hauers . The massive structure with polished granite columns and glazed Mettlacher stones was nicknamed "tiled stove". On June 9, 1914, a new building designed by the Hamburg architects Johann Gottlieb Rambatz and Wilhelm Jollasse was opened as the fifth building. During the Third Reich Swing concerts took place there for a long time, although the music was frowned upon by the National Socialists . In 1942, the pavilion was destroyed during a bombing raid. The present existing semicircular sixth flat-roofed building was built in 1952-1953 to plans by the architect Ferdinand Streb on the preserved basement floor and rebuilt in 1992-1994. This Divided Back Era postcard, mailed in 1920, is in good condition, but shows some edge wear.
