Hatzfeld'sches Palais
The Hatzfeld'sche Palais was a large residential building in Düsseldorf , Steinstrasse 20.
The historicist building was built in the second half of the 19th century by the Düsseldorf architect Franz Deckers based on models from the Italian Renaissance for Prince Alfred von Hatzfeldt-Wildenburg (-Weisweiler) (1825-1911) or his son Franz (1853-1910) who owned the manors Schloss Kalkum and Groß-Winkelhausen in Angermund . Before 1904, the palace was acquired by the Düsseldorfer Bankverein (which had already been taken over by the Barmer Bankverein in 1904 ) and converted into a bank building by the architect Wilhelm Kordt.
The ticket office was illuminated by a skylight. This was followed by the bookkeeping, the director's room, the consulting and waiting room and the securities office. The archive rooms, the cash safe and the steel chamber were in the basement. The meeting room for the supervisory board and the apartment for an executive officer were located on the upper floor .
The use as a bank building probably ended in 1912 with the commissioning of the representative new building of the Düsseldorf branch of the Barmer Bankverein, Breite Straße 25. The further history of use is not known, the building has not been preserved.
