Ernst Barlach House

Local nameErnst Barlach Haus
LocationOthmarschen, Deutschland

The Ernst Barlach House – Hermann F. Reemtsma Foundation is an art museum in Hamburg, Germany, devoted to the Expressionist artist Ernst Barlach.

The museum was founded by the industrialist Hermann F. Reemtsma, and is located in the Jenisch park in Othmarschen in the west of the city. The squat, functionalist museum building was begun in 1961 by the Hamburg architect Werner Kallmorgen, finished in 1962 after Reemtsma's death, and extended in 1996 with new rooms for temporary exhibitions. There is also a library containing literature on Barlach and his era.

Reemtsma had begun to build a collection of Barlach's works in the mid-1930s, after first meeting the multi-talented draughtsman, graphic artist, sculptor and dramatist.
