The Eichberg-Haus is a listed residential building at Von-Achenbach-Straße 36 in Thyrow , a district of the non-governmental city ​​of Trebbin in the Teltow-Fläming district in Brandenburg . It is named after the German director and film producer Richard Eichberg , who lived in it in the 1930s.

history

In 1841 Thyrow was connected to the Anhalter Bahn and from then on experienced a modest upswing. The Berlin real estate agent Winkler acquired some properties near the train station and then sold them on. By inspecting the building control role of the land registry office, architecture experts were able to determine that the three- or four-story building must have been built in 1923 instead of a garden house. This belonged to the chess player Emanuel Lasker . He sold the building to Eichberg in 1925. Five years later he had a greenhouse , a swimming pool and a garage added . The roof terrace was probably also created during the renovations. After the National Socialists came to power , however, his artistic freedom was increasingly restricted. He therefore left the German Reich at the end of the 1930s and went to the USA . His house was leased and one appointed by him to couple the 1950s maintained . In 1958 the hand weaver Roswitha Moxter took over the house, who used it as a workshop and living space. It stayed there even when the SED increased taxes on large craft businesses. Moxter then set up a textile studio in the rooms. After the fall of the Wall , the building and the property were returned to Eichberg's heirs. However, Moxter was no longer able to finance the maintenance of the building and gave up in 1995. The building has been empty since then. In 2002, the monument authority placed it under protection. It is in very poor condition in 2015.
