Act

During his long professional activity, Heylmann built both secular and sacred buildings. In terms of architectural design, his designs are in the footsteps of Hansen, but they also show their own style. The building of the late Classicist St. Peter's Church in Krempe , designed in collaboration with Hansen and carried out from 1828 to 1835, attracted the greatest attention within his work. The following works are also evidenced by Heylmann's major participation: The pastorates of Rellingen and Wedel , the Krummendiek manor , the town hall in Neustadt (1818-1820), the administrators' houses in Trittau and Ahrensbök , the clerk's house in Rantzau ( Barmstedt ), the cloister pre-works in Uetersen , the prison in Ahrensbök and the pulpit in the church in Cismar . Finally, the new construction of the Blankeneser Fährhaus (1826/1827) by Heylmann was also documented. In addition, existing buildings were converted, such as the restoration of the Bargteheide church (1817). Instead of Hansen, he was the site manager for projects such as the new building for the pastorate of Horst (1806/1807).
