Jenisch House, Neoclassical country house in Othmarschen, Germany

The Jenisch House features four floors with large windows, a Doric portico entrance, and columns that elevate the structure above Jenisch Park.

Senator Martin Johann Jenisch commissioned architect Franz Gustav Forsmann to construct this residence between 1831 and 1834 as a country retreat.
