Peter Joseph Krahe (*8 April 1758, †7 October 1840), head of construction in the Duchy of Brunswick, designed this portico (pillared porch) in 1805/06 for the conversion of the Augusttor building, built in 1730, into the Hauptwache (artillery barracks since 1832). He designed the new façade facing Torstrasse in the Doric style with six fluted columns and a triangular gable.
