Edvard Munch House Warnemünde

The Edvard Munch House is an old Warnemünde fisherman's house named after the Norwegian expressionist Edvard Munch, who lived in this house at Am Strom 53 in 1907/08 and spent an intensive creative period there.

The Edvard Munch House is one of the few surviving fishermen's houses in Warnemünde whose age can be traced back to the 17th century. Around 1906, the pilot Carl Nielsen was the owner of the house at Am Strom 53, and the boatman Albert Nielsen and his widow Catharina Holtz lived with him in the modest home. In 1918, the fisherman Albert Harms bought the house and lived there with his wife and daughter Liselotte for the rest of his life. Liselotte Zander, née Harms, remained loyal to the house for the rest of her life. The last owner of the house died in 1990 at the age of 79. The Edvard Munch House is still on its historic floor plan today. The original layout of the rooms is still recognizable after the extensive restoration between 1995 and 1997. Today, in addition to an exhibition space, the house also houses two studios and apartments for artists.
