Exterior view

Not far to the northwest of M�nster, Schlaun built himself a country lodge, the R�schhaus near Nienberge. In his lodge he succeeded in combining the rustic farmhouse type of the M�nster region with the frivolity of the French ‘maison de plaisance.” A central drive leads to the courtyard fa�ade with its great entrance archway. The garden front is ornamented with delicate windows and door frames and a flight of steps.

The picture shows a view from the courtyard.
