Hans Poelzig
German architect (Berlin, April 30, 1869 - Berlin, June 14, 1936)
Hans Poelzig (30 April 1869 – 14 June 1936) was a German architect, painter and set designer.
Poelzig was born in Berlin in 1869 to Countess Clara Henrietta Maria Poelzig (daughter of Alexander von Hanstein, Count of Pölzig and Beiersdorf) while she was married to George Acland Ames, an Englishman. Uncertain of his paternity, Ames refused to acknowledge Hans as his son and consequently he was brought up by a local choirmaster and his wife. In 1899 he married Maria Voss with whom they had four children.
Hans Poelzig was buried in the Old Cemetery in Berlin-Wannsee.
On 18 November 2015, Friedrichstadt-Palast Berlin inaugurated a memorial at Friedrichstraße 107 dedicated to the theatre's founders, Max Reinhardt, Hans Poelzig and Erik Charell.
