Otto Foerster

Otto Foerster was a German architect and builder who worked in Dresden.

Live and act

While his designs in 1899 still showed “pure neo-baroque architecture”, from 1901 onwards he partly turned to Art Nouveau. He was a Dresden architect of “second rank” who, alongside Heino Otto , Voretzsch , Rose & Röhle and the Fichtner brothers , represented Art Nouveau.
