history
The Osterdeich was created in 1850 as a new forward dyke line instead of older dyke sections. The top of the dike was given a roadway around 1850 that led to the Sielwall until 1867 . The dike was planted with trees in 1861. A promenade was laid out on and in front of the dike. A preferred place of residence for the Bremen upper class developed on the Weser .
The three-storey, plastered house with a gable roof , the bossing of the basement and mezzanine floor was built in 1863 in the era of historicism in the style of classicism and the Italian neo-renaissance for the merchant and partner in the company E. Pavenstedt & Co. Edmund Pavenstedt (1810-1891) built. The upper class Bremen house with the basement has a richly decorated veranda with four filigree columns. Inside, the well-preserved furnishings are predominantly renaissance forms. The unknown architect of the house could have been Heinrich Müller , who also planned for other merchants in the neighborhood.
The State Office for the Preservation of Monuments in Bremen found: “… The Pavenstedt house is one of the early examples of this development. The noble three-story plastered building still shows the restrained, balanced elegance of classicism on the upper floors ... "
The house belonged to the city from the 1960s / 70s. It was to be torn down for the so-called Mozart route . This road was not built. In 1982 the building had to be renovated and from 1982 to 2016, as Janusz Korczak House, it was the seat of the State Center for Political Education Bremen and is the seat of the German-Polish Society in Bremen . Today (2018) the house is also used by other offices.
Notes: Merchants, lawyers, members of the citizenship and a senator ( Johann Eberhard Pavenstedt ) come from the old Pavenstedt family . The Villa Pavenstedt from 1929 is in Schwachhausen .
