Oriel created by Stamm on the Achtermann House

Only a few works are attested by Stamm. Evidence of stone masonry and masonry work has been found since 1622. His name and his stonemason's mark with the year 1630 can be found on the Achtermann House at Reichsstraße 3, which the merchant Georg Achtermann and his wife Lucia von Strombeck built from 1626 to 1630 in the Weichbild Neustadt . Further work cannot be proven.

Paul Jonas Meier concluded on the basis of the flat reliefs and the early Baroque shapes on the portal of the Stechinelli House on the Altstadtmarkt that it could have come from him. He also points out that Stechinelli did not build the house, but that, according to a source (Edicta 23, page 70), he bought it as early as 1654 by Dr. jur. I bought Krauthaupt and only expanded it in 1690. Meier also assumes that the former Kalmsche Haus at Wilhelmstrasse 95/96, which was a school in 1936, has similar features to the Achtermannsche Haus and could therefore also come from Stamm. This also applies to the portal of the author's yard and the portal of the Stegerschen Mumme-Haus at Bäckerklint 4 , which was totally destroyed in the war.
