Thomas Mann House, Residential building in Pacific Palisades, United States.

The Thomas Mann House stands at 1550 San Remo Drive, featuring International Style architecture with large windows and white exterior walls designed by J.R. Davidson.

German novelist Thomas Mann and his family lived in this residence from 1942 to 1952 during their exile from Nazi Germany, where he wrote Doctor Faustus.

The property now functions as a center for transatlantic dialogue, hosting German and American scholars who engage in intellectual and social discourse.

The German government purchased and renovated the property in 2016, transforming it into a residence that offers fellowships for three to ten-month stays.

Each year, ten to twelve fellows from various disciplines stay at the house to address contemporary issues affecting German-American relations.
