________________
Since the late 15th century, the area around today's Maxplatz, as well as the Kreuzgassenviertel (Cross Street Quarter) west of Unschlittplatz (Illt Square) on the other side of the Pegnitz River, has been referred to as "auf dem Neuen Bau" (on the New Building). This designation, which appears frequently in the mid-16th century, remained in use until the beginning of the 19th century and identifies Maxplatz as the "new building area" on the Sebald side of the city in the 16th century. In 1528, the wine market was moved from its previous location to Maxplatz. In 1809/10, the square was renamed "Maximilianplatz" in honor of the Bavarian King Maximilian I Joseph (1806-15). (...)
