Museumsgespräch: Die Gestaltung des Stahlbungalows L141

In the organizer's words:

In May 2025, the Hoesch steel house L141 from 1966 was opened at its new location next to the Hoesch Museum. The historic residential building from the Kleinholthausen factory estate

It is a unique testimony to the innovative architecture of the 1960s. Developed by the Dortmund-based Hoesch coal and steel group, it was made from the composite material Platal. Today, a permanent cultural-historical exhibition shows the history of industrial housing, the development of prefabricated and steel houses and the role of steel in architecture and construction. In the museum talk, Maya Porat-Stolte presents the path from bungalow to museum building.

Over the past few years, she has scientifically accompanied the relocation and the development of the exhibition and will provide insights into the design concept and the furnishing of the new museum rooms.

The lecture will take place in the living room of the Stahlhaus. The building itself can be visited until 6 p.m. due to the event (regular opening hours on Thursdays 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.).
