Since the end of the 15th century, the area around today's Maxplatz, as well as the Kreuzgassenviertel west of Unschlittplatz across the Pegnitz River, has been referred to as "auf dem Neuer Bau" (Upon the New Building). This designation, which appeared frequently in the mid-16th century, remained with the square until the beginning of the 19th century and proves Maxplatz to be the "new building area" on the Sebald side of the city in the 16th century.
