Fontanehaus, Birth house and residential building at Karl-Marx-Straße, Neuruppin, Germany.

The three-floor Fontanehaus includes both residential spaces and a pharmacy, featuring a traditional German architectural style with symmetrical windows and a central entrance.

Louis Henry Fontane purchased this building in 1819, where his son Theodor, who became a notable German writer, was born on December 30 of that year.

The building contains the Löwenapotheke pharmacy on the ground floor, marked by a golden lion sign, connecting pharmaceutical heritage with literary significance.

While the residential areas remain private, visitors can examine historical displays about Theodor Fontane through the pharmacy windows at Karl-Marx-Straße 84.

Robert Werner Wagner, a contemporary painter and graphic artist, maintains his creative workspace in the same building where Theodor Fontane spent his early years.
