Fritz Niebel

Friedrich "Fritz" Niebel (born November 24, 1872 in Wetter (Ruhr) , † April 12, 1959 ) was a German architect . He mainly designed business and department stores in North Rhine-Westphalia .

Fritz Niebel initially worked from his office at Königstrasse 30 in Ruhrort , which is now part of Duisburg as a district . Around 1900 he moved to Düsseldorf , where he had an office at Cavalleriestrasse 16. In addition to commercial and residential buildings, he also designed sacred buildings and a school building. In the 1920s, Niebel focused on building department stores. As early as 1911 he had designed a department store in Recklinghausen , and one in Hagen that was considered to be a “prime example of urban department store architecture ”. He also built in Duisburg-Marxloh (1924) and Gelsenkirchen-Buer (1927–1928), among others . Its architectural activities are documented until 1951.

Fritz Niebel was a member of the Association of German Architects .
