history
Originally built by Johann de Hollande, a reformed cheese merchant from Amsterdam , as "Haus Amsterdam", it was later named after the court pastry chef Carl Joseph Lossow with his wife Katharina, born there since 1788 . Reiffschneider founded "Specereyhandlung". House and business found their way into the vernacular , because in Hanau they said “The best thing about the Hanau air is Lossow's coffee smell”, the business was continued by one of the three sons, Christian Johann Lossow. Carl Joseph Lossow is the father of Emil Lossow and the grandfather of Arthur Lossow , William Lossow and Max Lossow .
From 1789 to 1799 the family of the mayor of Hanau Neustadt and later district president of Kassel Johannes Hassenpflug lived on the first floor of the house above Lossow's shop. The children of the Hassenpflug family included Amalie Hassenpflug , Marie Hassenpflug and the later Interior and Justice Minister Ludwig Hassenpflug , known as the "Hessian curse".
After 1851 , the Lord Mayor of Hanau and later Minister of the Interior and Finance of the liberal March government, Bernhard Eberhard, lived in the house of his daughter Marie and her husband, the businessman Christian Johann Lossow, who also worked as an insurance agent and as the "main agent for the transport of emigrants" to America and Australia was operating.
The liberal Bernhard Eberhard and the conservative Ludwig Hassenpflug, who succeeded him in the Hessian government, were bitter political opponents.
