Fritz Haferkamp (born June 19, 1925 in Cologne ; † September 26, 1994 ; full name: Walter Friedrich Haferkamp ) was a German architect . From about 1952 he worked in the building department of the city of Cologne; under his direction the new building for the historical archive of the city of Cologne was built on Severinstrasse , whose air-conditioning solution - the "Cologne solution" - has been internationally pioneering for decades.

life and work

Facade of the historical archive of the city of Cologne 2006; Slits in the facade were used for indirect lighting and natural ventilation of the archive material.

Haferkamp studied architecture from November 1943 as a student of Hans Schwippert at RWTH Aachen University . Around 1952 he joined the building department of the city of Cologne. Under his planning, a number of school buildings were built in Cologne from 1954, such as the reconstruction of the Deutz grammar school in Schaurtestrasse (1955), the Lassallestrasse secondary school in Mülheim (1956) and the vocational school in Weinsbergstrasse in Ehrenfeld (1963).

From 1969 to 1971 he was in charge of the new building of the historical archive of the city of Cologne on Severinstrasse. To protect the archived material from the most varied of weather and climatic influences, he relied on a self-regulating solution that managed with little additional air conditioning. This air conditioning model became the model for numerous subsequent archive buildings, such as the General Reich Archives of the Netherlands in The Hague in 1980, the State Archives of the Canton of Zurich (1985), the Federal Archives in Koblenz (1986) and the State Archives in Leipzig and Darmstadt (each 1994). Haferkamp died in 1994 and was buried in the cemetery in Bensberg .
