Quatmannshof

Quatmannshof, Historical farmhouse at Museum Village Cloppenburg, Germany.

The Quatmannshof is a Hallenhaus farmhouse built in 1806 as a Zweiständerhaus with Kübbungen, measuring 45 meters long and over 14 meters wide. Its front gable has a triple overhang, and the exterior walls are infilled with brick. The 120 m² Flett hearth room is separated from the Diele by a wall, and the two parlors were heated by rear-loading stoves. Outbuildings include a 1777 grain barn, a 1770 cattle barn, a wagon shed, a bakehouse, a sheep stall, a granary, and a threshing tower with a horse mill, arranged at right angles around the main house's front gable.

Georg Quatmann, born in 1767, began building the main house as an hereditary farm in Elsten in 1803; work stopped for a year due to disputes with the carpenters and resumed in 1805, finishing in 1806. In 1935 the main building was moved to the emerging Museum Village Cloppenburg, where the Reich Labour Service helped rebuild it; its topping-out was held during Cloppenburg's 500th anniversary and it opened in 1936. The farm burned down near the end of World War II from artillery fire and reconstruction was completed in 1962.

The farm's name comes from its builder, Georg Quatmann, born in 1767, who began the main house in 1803 as an Erbhof. On the Diele long stood a bust of Heinrich Ottenjann, founder of the Museumsdorf Cloppenburg, carved by the Artland sculptor Karl Allöder. The 120 m² Flett, separated from the Diele by a wall, held the hearth; the two Stuben were heated by Hinterladeröfen.

The outbuildings stand at right angles around the front gable of the main house, so a loop past the threshing tower, bakehouse and sheep stall follows the original farmyard layout. The main hall alone is 45 metres long, and the 120 m² Flett hearth room lies behind a wall separating it from the Diele. Allow time to walk the whole ensemble.

The farm is named after its builder, Georg Quatmann, born in 1767, who began the main building in 1803 as an inherited farm. Work stopped after a year over a dispute between him and the carpenters and only resumed in 1805. On the dale long stood a bust of Heinrich Ottenjann, founder of the Museum Village, carved by the Artland sculptor Karl Allöder.
