Life

The house at Am Bokemahle 8 in the southern part of Hanover, which was built for Gustav Hausmann until 1874, was the residence of Lisa and Hermann Löns from 1902 to 1907

Lisa Löns was born in Hanover in 1871 , the year the German Empire was founded, as the daughter of the landscape painter Gustav Hausmann and Johanne Fuess (1842–1911), the daughter of a paper manufacturer.

After attending school, she worked as a secretary in the editorial department of the daily newspaper Hannoverscher Anzeiger . During a tour of the Wienhausen Abbey in 1900, she met Hermann Löns , whom she married as his second wife in 1902.

Lisa Löns supported her husband's writing and journalistic work, but also wrote her own journalistic articles, some of which she marked with the letters “LHL” for Lisa Hausmann-Löns. Other works partly appeared under the name of her husband.

In 1906 her mentally handicapped son Dettmer († 1968) was born. After a conflict on July 27, 1911, when Hermann Löns fired a shot in their shared apartment, Löns separated from her husband and moved first to Münster , then to Jena in 1914 . In the following years she translated various novels from English in particular.

After Lisa Löns had a spa stay in Bad Oeynhausen in 1930, she moved to the spa more than a decade later and in the middle of World War II in 1941. In the early post-war period , she campaigned for the city ​​occupied by the British military in 1945 . In 1950 she was evacuated to Bad Salzuflen, from where she did not return to Bad Oeynhausen until 1955.

Lisa Löns was buried in her mother's grave at the Engesohde city cemetery in Hanover.
