Hölderlinhaus, Literary house museum in Nürtingen, Germany

The Hölderlinhaus in Nürtingen stands on the site of the former Schweizerhof, a 1622 estate of the castle built by Heinrich Schickhardt. After the 1750 town fire destroyed the rebuilt house, it was reconstructed in 1751 as a multi-storey late-baroque townhouse to plans by Johann Adam Groß the Elder. Its cubature has survived, though two centuries of school use altered the interior and attic.

The site held the Schweizerhof, a farm building of Nürtingen Castle designed by Heinrich Schickhardt from 1622. Mayor Jakob Friedrich Duttenhofer rebuilt it as a townhouse, but it burned in the 1750 fire that destroyed 133 buildings and was rebuilt in 1751 to plans by Johann Adam Groß the Elder. From 1774 Hölderlin's mother lived here with her children; she sold the house in 1795, and from 1811 it served the hospital as a school, soup kitchen and kindergarten.

The house displays manuscripts, letters, and possessions that show how important Hölderlin's poetry was to German Romantic literature. Visitors can see the books and objects around him and understand how he spent his daily life.

The house stands on the Neckarsteige in Nürtingen's old town. Since the 2020–2023 renovation it holds the permanent exhibition "Möcht' ich ein Komet sein? Hölderlins Bildungswege und Nürtingen", and the Gok'sche Keller is open to the public as an event space for the first time. The building also houses the Volkshochschule, the music and youth art school office and the city's cultural office.

The house's name only dates from 1931; before that it was known by its uses, from the Schweizerhof of Nürtingen Castle to a bakery with the inn "Zum Waldhorn", which baker Johann Michael Maier opened on the ground floor after buying the building in 1795.
