Laeiszhof, Commercial building in Hamburg-Altstadt, Germany

The Laeiszhof features a three-winged design with light gray granite at the base and reddish-brown granite blocks on the next two floors.

Built between 1897 and 1898, architects Bernhard Hanssen, Wilhelm Emil Meerwein, and Martin Haller designed this structure for the F. Laeisz shipping company.

The entrance facade displays statues of historical figures created by sculptor Bruno Kruse, representing the connection between commerce and Hamburg's maritime heritage.

Located near Trostbrücke, the building maintains its original function as headquarters for marine insurers and the F. Laeisz shipping company.

A sculpture of a poodle decorates the gable, referencing Carl Laeisz's wife and the tradition of naming their fleet vessels with the letter P.
