In our turn-of-the-century apartment, there is some kind of additional wall in the bedroom. We want to create more space and therefore want to remove it, is that possible?
What is it doing there? Additional insulation? It doesn't appear on the construction drawings.
However, it seems to have been there for a long time since the moldings are the same. Previously adjacent to a tiled stove.
Although your images are difficult to understand, one might guess that visible stalks, like heating pipes, have been built. It's not certain that it's original. The fitting on the molding is quite poor.
Even though your pictures are hard to understand, one could guess that visible trunks, like heating pipes, have been built. It's not certain that it's original. The fitting on the trim is quite poor.
What else could it be? I don't think it’s trunks since the facade doesn't lead to anything and I haven't heard any sounds from it.
Isn't it rather that it's a niche where the tile stove stood and what you call an extra wall is the old wall? Probably it's a layer of plaster and reeds that you naturally couldn't have behind the tile stove, so it has been built directly against the brick wall. I wouldn't remove it. Firstly, it would likely be a rather dirty job, and secondly, you don't know how it will affect sound and heat insulation.

Shouldn't it have been drawn in the documents then since the tiled stove is?

Checked now in the other room that is against the same wall and also has a tiled stove but it didn't have the same niche or extension. That wall and the tiled stove are directly against the brick wall.

I understand. Then it seems to be a later extension. I also looked more closely at one of the pictures, and it actually looks like the old wallpaper goes behind the new wall. I would start by removing a small section at the edge there to see what the new wall consists of. Is it plaster and wattle? Some kind of boards directly against the wall? Studs and chipboard?
