🏛️ Klaus Groth Museum

The Klaus-Groth-Museum is a museum in Heide, Germany. It was established in 1914 in the birthplace of the Low German poet Klaus Groth (1819-1899). After the city of Heide purchased the dilapidated house, it was renovated while striving to preserve the original look of the gable house that was built in 1796 by Groth’s grandfather. Amongst other things, the room Klaus Groth was born in was reconstructed. A drawing by painter Otto Speckter from 1853 served as orientation. Citizens of Heide donated furniture and books to re-equip the interior.
