Noacksches Haus, Historic residential building in Potsdam, Germany.
Noacksches Haus stands as a three-story baroque residential building featuring a classical facade with Tuscan columns, decorative window frames, and ornamental balustrades that exemplify 18th-century Prussian architecture.
Originally constructed in 1777 by architect Carl von Gontard under commission from Frederick the Great, the building was destroyed during Allied bombing raids in 1945 and faithfully reconstructed between 2013 and 2016.
The building's design draws inspiration from Andrea Palladio's Palazzo Chiericati in Vicenza, representing Frederick the Great's preference for neoclassical architectural elements in Prussian civic construction projects.
Located at Humboldtstraße 4 near the Old Market, the reconstructed building currently houses commercial spaces on the ground floor and residential apartments in the upper levels.
The reconstruction utilized historical photographs and detailed architectural records to recreate even the smallest decorative elements, including stone masks made from original rubble fragments found at the site.
