The Holländerhaus is a residential building and a monument in the Niederschönhausen part of the Berlin district of Pankow .

history

The Holländerhaus is on Kaiser-Wilhelm-Strasse (today: Dietzgenstrasse 51-53) opposite the office building . The property was acquired by the businessman Heinrich Friedrich Gottlieb Fetschow in 1802. The summer house was used by scholars, artists and generals who were acquainted with the Fetschow family. Henriette Sophia Fetschow had the summer house demolished after the death of her husband in 1812. A new building in Dutch style was built on the site of the old summer house from 1816. Since then it has been called the Dutch House.

In 1851 the master locksmith and manufacturer August Hauschild from Berlin acquired the Holländerhaus. He commissioned the architect Ludwig Schultz to renovate the house, who at the request of the client also had a knight's hall built into the interior of the three-story building, which is still in the building today. Here you can still admire ironwork (historicized knight armor, lances and swords), which the owner, a passionate hobby blacksmith, made himself in a small outbuilding. The architect Ludwig Schultz made major changes to the balcony extension in front of the knight's hall on the northern gable side, as it was decorated with artistically valuable neo-Gothic carvings. The painted wood imitations of the room doors and the staircase with an elaborate spiral staircase are just as valuable. From the balcony you should have had a famous distant view. He also built a shed of brick . For this he used Schinkel's formal language.

The coachman's apartment was originally to be found in the coach house. The house remained in the Hauschild family's possession for many decades and increasingly fell into disrepair due to a lack of investment. In 1984 the family then sold the house to the Central Industrial Plant Construction of the Metallurgy Combine (ZIM), which had it restored at the request of the listed building - including the beautiful wooden entrance building on Dietzgenstrasse. Unfortunately, the foundation was poured at the wrong angles so that the wooden structure does not quite fit. Today various companies are based in the Holländerhaus. The fire brigade was called to the Hollandhaus on June 16, 2016 because a lightning strike had split the 30 meter high linden tree and the crashed part had struck in the center of the roof turret of the house. After four hours of work, the tree was recovered from the roof with a crane.

In the Museum Pankow (location Heynstrasse) is the file rescued from the garbage in 1989 for the restoration of the Dutch house by the combine ZIM.
