Lot 1849 | SS-Obersturmbannführer Hermann Bartels - Planungsentwurf zur Erweiterung der Wewelsburg vom 23. April 1941
SS-Obersturmbannführer Hermann Bartels - Planungsentwurf zur Erweiterung der Wewelsburg vom 23. April 1941
Tusche und Bleistift auf Architektenpapier. Maßstab 1:5000, rechts oben bezeichnet "SS Wewelsburg", rechts unten datiert "Wewelsburg, den 23. April 1941" mit eigenhändiger Unterschrift "Bartels" und Zusatz "SS-Obersturmbannführer - Baurat". Linksseitig Legende mit den von 1 - 15 nummerierten Gebäuden wie "1 Sportplatz, Turnhalle, Kaserne", "6 Kraftwerk", oder "14 HJ-Heim". Maße 89 x 160 cm, gerollt. Hervorragende Erhaltung mit wenigen Randschäden/-einrissen.
Hermann Bartels (1900 - 1989) wurde bereits 1933 durch Himmler als Architekt für den Umbau der Wewelsburg bestimmt. Bis 1941 wurden zwei Verwaltungsgebäude errichtet, der große Umbau sah jedoch vor, das Dorf Wewelsburg zu entsiedeln, um - wie in dem Entwurf sehr gut zu sehen - in einem großen Radius um die Burg eine neue Burganlage zu errichten.

April 1941" with the original signature "Bartels" and note "SS-Obersturmbannführer - Baurat". The legend on the left, listing the buildings numbered from 1 to 15, such as "1 Sportplatz, Turnhalle, Kaserne", "6 Kraftwerk", or "14 HJ-Heim". Dimensions 89 x 160 cm, rolled up.

As early as 1933, Himmler appointed Hermann Bartels (1900 - 1989) as the architect responsible for remodelling Wewelsburg Castle. By 1941, two administrative buildings had been built. However, the major reconstruction included plans to relocate the village of Wewelsburg, as can clearly be seen in the draft, so as to construct a new castle complex in a large circle around the castle.
