The horticulture, landscape architecture and environmental development building complex
Herrenh盲user Stra脽e 2/2a



The ensemble of buildings at Herrenh盲user Stra脽e 2 was built for the College of Horticulture and Landscape Architecture, founded in 1947 in Sarstedt near Hannover. Since 1952, it has been part of Technische Hochschule Hannover. The oldest building, completed in 1949, stretches along Herrenh盲user Stra脽e.



The main building to the east consists of three wings forming an inner courtyard with a green walkway. Several institutes in the field of natural sciences use this building, which also comprises two lecture halls.
Moreover, buildings for additional institutes were constructed between Herrenh盲user Stra脽e and Haltenhoffstra脽e. The area also comprises gardens, fields and numerous greenhouses where experiments are carried out.

In 1985, the university took over a former church office at Herrenh盲user Stra脽e 2a, which adjoins it to the east. The elaborately designed former boardroom is now used as a lecture hall. The low construction of the whole area blends in with the park environment, especially with the adjacent Berggarten, which is also of professional interest to individual institutes. LUH鈥檚 childcare facility "Leibniz Kids" established in 2010 is also located at Herrenh盲user Stra脽e 2.
