About the Osnabrück University Guest House “Manfred Horstmann-Haus”

The 1995 as a guest house redesigned villa with landmarked art nouveau elements built in 1911, is situated only a few minutes from downtown. All the University’s institutions in the city and on Campus Westerberg can quickly be reached by foot.

Seit Juni 1996 bieten 10 Apartments unterschiedlicher Größe Gastwissenschaftlern und deren Familien ein Zuhause auf Zeit. Im Erdgeschoss befinden sich repräsentative Gesellschaftsräume, die sowohl der internationalen Begegnung dienen sollen als auch für Veranstaltungen genutzt werden können.

The first floor of the house contains an auditorium and two additional reception rooms. These rooms are conducive to promoting international exchange, and are suitable for holding meetings, conferences and receptions. The large garden with play facilities for children is an inviting place to linger. Osnabrück University Senate decided to name the Guest House after the University’s founding rector and long-time President, Professor Dr. Manfred Horstmann.
