Das Heilig-Geist-Spital in Nürnberg war die größte städtische Einrichtung (Siechenhaus) zur Versorgung von Kranken und (vor allem) Alten in der Reichsstadt und wurde durch die Franziskaner betreut. Darüber hinaus diente es als Wohnstätte für Behinderte, als Schulhaus, Spital mit Apotheke sowie Wöchnerinnenstation. Das Spital wurde zum Teil über dem Bett der Pegnitz errichtet. Es wurde von Konrad Groß, dem damals reichsten Nürnberger Bürger, als gestiftet. Das Spital wurde 1339 zusammen mit einer Kirche, das wie in allen mittelalterlichen Städten dem Heiligen Geist geweiht war.

Es ist bekannt als Aufbewahrungsstätte der Reichskleinodien, die von 1424 bis 1796 in Nürnberg verwahrt wurden.

Der Sage nach wurden das Heilig-Geist-Spital und seine Bewohner um 1340 Zielscheibe eines bösen Scherzes von Till Eulenspiegel, der vorgab, an einem Tage alle Kranken ohne Arznei gesund gemacht zu haben.

 

The Holy Spirit Hospital in Nuremberg was the largest municipal institution (infirmary) for the care of the sick and (especially) the elderly in the imperial city and was run by the Franciscans. It also served as a home for the disabled, a school, a hospital with a pharmacy and a maternity ward. The hospital was partly built over the bed of the Pegnitz. It was donated by Konrad Groß, the richest citizen of Nuremberg at the time. The hospital was built in 1339 together with a church dedicated to the Holy Spirit, as in all medieval towns.

It is known as the repository of the imperial jewels, which were kept in Nuremberg from 1424 to 1796.

According to legend, the Holy Spirit Hospital and its inhabitants became the target of an evil joke by Till Eulenspiegel around 1340, who pretended to have cured all the sick in one day without medicine.

Etwa zwanzig mittelalterliche Fachwerkhäuser in der Weißgerbergasse haben die schweren Luftangriffe auf Nürnberg überstanden. Die Weißgerbergasse spiegelt daher ein Stück des historischen Nürnbergs, insbesondere eines alten Handwerkerviertels innerhalb des Burgviertels, wider. Der Name der Gasse kommt von den Weißgerbern, die im Mittelalter dort ansässig waren und im Gegensatz zu den Rotgerbern mit Hilfe von Alaun, Kochsalz, Mehl, Eiern und Baumöl rohe Tierhäute zu feinem, hellen Leder, dem sogenannten Weißleder, verarbeiteten. Da das Gerben der Tierhäute damals sehr viel Wasser beanspruchte und zudem eine nicht unerhebliche Geruchsbelästigung darstellte, kommt es nicht von ungefähr, dass die Handwerkshäuser fast alle über einen privaten Brunnen verfügten und am Ortsausgang in der Nähe der abfließenden Pegnitz angesiedelt waren.

 

About twenty medieval half-timbered houses on Weißgerbergasse survived the heavy air raids on Nuremberg. The Weißgerbergasse therefore reflects a piece of historic Nuremberg, in particular an old craftsmen's quarter within the castle district. The name of the alley comes from the white tanners who lived there in the Middle Ages and, in contrast to the red tanners, processed raw animal skins into fine, light-colored leather, the so-called white leather, with the help of alum, common salt, flour, eggs and tree oil. Since the tanning of animal skins used up a lot of water at the time and also caused a not inconsiderable odor nuisance, it is no coincidence that the craft houses almost all had a private well and were located on the outskirts of the town near the outflow of the Pegnitz.

The Heilig-Geist-Spital was built in 1339 together with a church as a so-called infirmary, which, like in all medieval towns, was dedicated to the Holy Spirit. It was a private foundation sponsored by the city, which was looked after by the Franciscans. It served as a dwelling for the elderly and disabled, as a school building, hospital with pharmacy and maternity ward.

Excerpt from Wikipedia:

 

The Ludwigstor was a gate through the Nuremberg city wall and is today one of the main entrances to the south-west of Nuremberg 's old town.

 

In addition to the Spittlertor , another connection to Gostenhof was required due to the increasing traffic in 1866. A town gate with a Rustika archway was built and named after the nearby "Ludwigstraße". Due to the further increase in traffic, it was demolished again in 1893.

 

The Ludwigstorzwinger (also known as the Köchertszwinger) extends between the Ludwigstor and the Fürther Tor.
