Bilker Straße 15

Bilker Straße 15, Cultural residence in Carlstadt district, Düsseldorf, Germany

The building at Bilker Straße 15 is a residence from the late 18th century with original architectural details situated on a cobblestone street with gas lanterns. The structure displays typical features of its period with facade elements and the arrangement of windows and doors.

Robert Schumann moved to Düsseldorf on 1 September 1850; from 1852 Bilker Straße 15 held his fourth and last flat in the city until his admission to the private asylum in Endenich near Bonn in 1854. His youngest son Felix was born here in 1854. Clara Schumann stayed on with the children until 1855, then moved to Poststraße.

Since 1 December 2023 the former Schumann flat on the first and second floors has housed the Schumann-Museum, run with pieces from the Heinrich-Heine-Institut's collection at Bilker Straße 12–14 and the Robert-Schumann-Gesellschaft. In Schumann's study visitors may leaf through old books matching the family's reading, and a one-person "Lästerkammer" plays rumours about the couple and Düsseldorf society.

The Schumann Museum occupies the first and second floors at Bilker Straße 15 in the Carlstadt district; the entrance is reached via the new extension added in the 2023 conversion. The house stands a few doors from the Heinrich-Heine-Institut at Bilker Straße 12–14, whose Schumann collection supplies the exhibits. Original floorboards, windows and door frames were kept during the renovation, which ran from 2021 to December 2023.

In the former study, visitors may leaf through old books matching the Schumanns' reading, and a replica of Robert Schumann's desk stands there; the original is in the Robert-Schumann-Haus in Zwickau. A one-person "Lästerkammer" plays rumours and gossip about the couple and Düsseldorf society.
