The Verwalterinnenhaus is the best-preserved building in the ensemble Komturei Werben. It is to be sensitively and ecologically restored in keeping with its status as a listed building. The supporting structure of the building, which has been weakened by destruction, will be restored and the ground level will be excavated to the height it was at the time of construction. It is planned to convert the attic to create a total of six guest apartments.
Elements from the building period, such as individual windows that still exist, are restored and reinstalled. Newly added parts that are not from the building period, such as the dormers on the roof or the balconies on the tower, are clearly differentiated as abstract volumes in a contemporary design. Materials that still exist, such as the wooden floorboards or roof tiles, will be reused. For the remaining construction measures, it is planned to use ecological materials such as loam and lime plasters, lime screed and wood fibre insulation.
A building botanical balcony on the west side of the building grows up as a support structure in the form of appropriately planted trees and will support the balcony in the future. The destroyed ornaments and pinnacles will be rebuilt for birds and bats in the construction-period volume but with numerous nesting and brood boxes. Vines will be enabled to grow up the façade.
Completion is scheduled for spring 2025.
