Hammonia-Bad, Cultural heritage monument in Uhlenhorst, Germany.
Hammonia-Bad is a four-story red brick building at Lerchenfeld 14-18 in Hamburg-Nord with a tower-like section. The facade displays expressionistic cornices made of shell limestone, and the interior features Art Deco ceramics crafted with care.
The building was constructed between 1926 and 1928 by architect Carl Feindt to provide bathing facilities for working-class residents lacking private bathrooms. Its purpose changed over time as neighborhoods and needs evolved.
The English Theatre operates on the ground floor and is Germany's oldest English-speaking theater. The venue shapes the neighborhood's cultural life through its regular performances.
The building today houses a medical care center occupying part of the structure. Visitors can view the distinctive architecture and visit the theater located on the ground floor.
The interior was designed with handcrafted ceramics by Richard Kuöhl, including decorative tiles in the staircase and a special Banana Room featuring Art Deco elements. These hand-made details showcase the quality of the interior finishes from the construction period.
