Gasthaus Hauptstraße 33, Gebäude in Syke
Gasthaus Hauptstraße 33 is a two-story brick building from 1896 in the Neorenaissance style, featuring a hipped roof and decorative elements around its windows. The interior contains a large event hall on the upper floor and original brick walls with carefully detailed window features.
The land was owned by the Bomhoff family since the 1760s, operating an inn until a large fire destroyed the building in 1808. After rebuilding around 1810, Heinrich Wessel acquired the property through marriage in 1886 and constructed the current building in 1896.
The building was a gathering place for traveling workers and craftsmen who stayed there during their journeys for work. The inn's role in local life was central, as clubs, groups, and community members gathered there for meetings and celebrations.
The building is a protected historical monument visible from the street and located in the town center on the main road. Since it no longer operates as a restaurant, visitors can appreciate it from the exterior and examine the architectural details of the facade.
The building served a dual purpose from 1908 to 1919 as both an inn and the seat of town administration, where municipal matters were discussed. This period shows how central the establishment was to the town's administration and public life.
