The new farm building

Between 1915 and 1919, the estate in Poing was extended by five hectares, which included fields and meadows as well as the neighboring house no. 35, the so-called Laurent house. Otto and Anita had Laurent house demolished in 1919; master builder Lanzl built a new farm building for a total of 100,000 Deutsche Mark according to plans by the architect Max Roth. It was in this building that three rooms and a kitchen-cum-living room on the first floor were furnished for the gardener and his family, while three rooms and a kitchen-cum-living room on the second floor were furnished as a guest apartment. The first guest was Alfons Hoppe, Anita’s father, who had provided financial support to the family again, funding all the furnishings for the guest house.
