Theodor-Storm-Haus, Literature museum in Husum, Germany.
The Theodor-Storm-Haus stands at Wasserreihe 31 in Husum. On the ground floor are the former Landvogtei office and Storm's study; upstairs is the Geschirrstube with old table porcelain, alongside paintings and objects from the poet and his circle. The living room is kept close to its state in Storm's lifetime, and the Hademarschen room recalls his final years.
The house at Wasserreihe 31 in Husum was Theodor Storm's home from 1866 to 1880, the years when he served as Landvogt of the district. The building later became a literary museum devoted to him, and since 2011 it has been directed by Christian Demandt. The Theodor-Storm-Gesellschaft, which studies and promotes his work, has its seat in the house.
The house at Wasserreihe 31 holds the headquarters of the Theodor-Storm-Gesellschaft, the society that studies and promotes the writer's work. Its scientific library and archive occupy the remaining rooms and are used for research projects, so the building serves both as a museum and as a working centre for Storm scholarship.
The museum is accessible most days and visitors should allow one to two hours for viewing the displayed rooms. The exhibition spans multiple levels, so comfortable shoes are recommended.
The house holds the Theodor Storm Society's offices and a research library and archive used for its projects. The society is named after the poet, and since 2011 the institution has been directed by Christian Demandt.
