Ortwin Rave (born October 13, 1921 in Siegen ; † December 15, 1992 in Münster ) was a German architect .

Life

Ortwin Rave was born in Siegen as the son of the architect and monument conservator Wilhelm Rave . The family moved to Münster in 1928, where the father initially worked in the monuments office of the provincial administration and from 1931 to 1952 had a formative role as the Westphalian provincial curator.

After school and military service, Ortwin Rave began his architecture studies at the Technical University in Braunschweig , which he completed with a diploma under Friedrich Wilhelm Kraemer . He then worked as a trainee lawyer at the Deutsche Bundesbahn in Münster.

From 1952 he formed a team of architects in Münster with Harald Deilmann , Max von Hausen and Werner Ruhnau . After winning competitions, they jointly realized the Münster City Theater and the Gelsenkirchen City Theater . While Deilmann and Ruhnau subsequently founded their own offices, Ortwin Rave and Max von Hausen developed a lifelong office partnership from 1959, which lasted until 1987. Numerous projects emerged, including churches, residential and administrative buildings. Most of the orders were direct orders to the team, which also stood out due to the cautious culture of continuing to build.

The projects of the team of architects were among the most ambitious of their time. Traditional room concepts were questioned, new constructions and materials tried out. The collaboration with artists, u. a. with Victor Bonato , Norbert Kricke , Thomas Lenk and Georg Karl Pfahler , honored many projects.

Orwin Rave felt a lifelong connection to the cultural region of Westphalia through the extensive research on building history by his father Wilhelm Rave . The Berlin art historian Paul Ortwin Rave was his uncle.
