Hermann - Vogel - Haus

  • Museum/art collection

The mansion-like half-timbered house - decorated all over with carved fairytale motifs - is open to visitors.

The late Romantic painter-poet Hermann Vogel had the house built next to his home in Loschwitz near Dresden in 1891. Over the years, the Plauen-born draughtsman focused more and more on Vogtland motifs in his work. His strong attachment to his Vogtland homeland meant that he spent the last years of his life in Krebes all year round.

Hermann Vogel was far more than just a depictor of romantic idylls. His mistrust of blind faith in progress and the resulting threat to nature and the environment, as well as the consequences for mankind, make him an admonisher of surprising topicality.
