history
The former shipyard on the Lesum was founded in 1770 by Hinrich Raschen (1735–1800). In the second half of the 18th century it was an important shipyard on the Lower Weser , which manufactured many ships for Bremen shipping companies. The first ship was launched in 1776 and there is evidence that 109 ships had been built by 1841. After 1800 his son Hinrich (1780–1848) ran the shipyard. The spacious house was completed as a new building around 1840 and the shipyard went bankrupt in 1841.
The ensemble includes the well-handed down, single-storey, clinkered house with a half-hipped roof and the associated, clinkered half-timbered house with a gable roof .
The State Office for Monument Preservation Bremen wrote: “... [the] half-timbered building is a clear structural testimony to the former shipyard ... In addition, the assembly is of considerable technical and shipyard history relevance, as it is part of the now rare historical shipyard buildings from the First half of the 19th century in Bremen counts ... "
Eberhard Focke from Bremen bought the property in 1842 and leased the shipyard to master shipbuilder Bernhard Wencke , Bremen. Until 1870 there were different owners. In 1870 the shipyard was closed and the shipyard buildings demolished; the main house was preserved.
Here was the Hofmeierhaus of the country estate of Kaufmann, politician ( DNVP , NSDAP ) and (from 1933) Senator Otto Flohr (1869–1942), who founded the tobacco company Flohr in Argentina and continued to work in the tobacco business after his return in 1903. His son Dr. jur. Otto Flohr (junior) was then co-heir of the house and lived here after 1945. He built the attic for his mother Elisabeth (Elli) Flohr.
Today (2018) the buildings are used as offices and residential buildings.
