Heinrich Tussmann

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heinrich Tussmann (also Tussmann ) was a Duisburg master builder in the 16th century.

Heinrich Tussmann was born as the son of Bernd Tussmann .

He came from the school of Arndt Johannsen to Boecop from Arnhem , the master builder of Horst Castle ( Gelsenkirchen ).

Among other things, Tussmann built the (new) Düsseldorf City Hall between 1570 and 1573 .

To what extent Tussmann's creative influence extended beyond the execution and supervision and to what extent the probably fundamental plans of Maximilian Pasqualini were expanded is still a matter of dispute. In his hometown, Tussmann remained (as far as can be seen) unproductive.
