Friedrich Engels House, 18th-century timber house in Wuppertal, Germany

The Friedrich Engels House features preserved rooms with period furnishings, stucco decorations, and landscape-patterned wallpapers from the 1830s bourgeois era.

Built in 1775 by Eberhard Haarmann, this late baroque building became the residence of the Engels family during the early industrialization period.

The house contains exhibitions about Friedrich Engels, who collaborated with Karl Marx to develop influential economic and political theories.

Located at Engelsstraße 10, the museum opens Tuesday through Friday from 9:00 to 17:00 and weekends from 10:00 to 18:00, with admission at 4 euros.

The museum underwent extensive renovation from 2016 to 2021, culminating in a new permanent exhibition for Engels's 200th birth anniversary.
