Haus Münsterberg

The so-called Haus Münsterberg on Hornsche Straße is a listed building in Detmold in the district of Lippe .
The building was built in 1840 for the councillor and painter Johann Spieß. The building official Ferdinand Ludwig Merckel is suspected to be the planner. In 1862 Spieß sold the house to the architect Barkhausen, and in 1886 it was finally acquired by the art collector and merchant Oskar Münsterberg from Danzig, who at that time joined the neighbouring Klingenberg printing company as a partner. In the period from 1888 to 1890, Münsterberg furnished the building with works of art that he had brought with him from all over the world. Even after he left the Klingenberg company, the house remained in his possession, and his heirs rented it to the Lippe State Conservatory around 1917.
