Leibnizhaus, Renaissance building in Mitte, Germany
The Leibnizhaus is an office building with a reconstructed Baroque facade in Hannover's city center. The exterior walls display carefully crafted biblical sculptures and ornamental stone carvings that shape its appearance.
The original building was constructed in 1499 as a residence for wealthy citizens. After its destruction in 1943, it was rebuilt at a different location in 1983 and its Baroque facade was reconstructed.
The building is named after the philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, who lived and worked here from 1698 to 1716. Visitors can still see the spaces where this important thinker conducted his intellectual pursuits.
The building is open during business hours as a conference center and guest facility. Visitors should note that parts of the structure are actively used and may not always be fully accessible.
When Leibniz served as court librarian, the electoral library was housed within these walls. This collection became the foundation for what is now the Leibniz Information Center.
