Otto-Haesler-Museum and its collection

Otto-Haesler-Museum
Source

The Otto-Haesler-Museum, located in Celle, Lower Saxony, is a tribute to the life and work of the architect Otto Haesler. Haesler spent a significant portion of his career in Celle, and the museum serves as a testament to his architectural contributions to the city and beyond.

Location of the Otto-Haesler-Museum

The Otto-Haesler-Museum is housed in a unique location: the washing, bathing, and heating house of the Blumläger Feld settlement. This settlement was designed by Otto Haesler himself in 1931, adding an extra layer of historical significance to the museum's location.

Historical Apartments at the Otto-Haesler-Museum

Adjacent to the Otto-Haesler-Museum, within the Blumläger Feld settlement, are three museum apartments. These apartments have been preserved in their original state and showcase furnishings from different eras. Visitors can explore a worker's apartment from 1930, a refugee accommodation from 1945, and a worker's apartment as it would have appeared in the 1950s.
