Description
The company Christoph und Unmack from Niesky, Germany specialized in the rapid construction of prefabricated wooden houses. The wooden skeleton with the fire-retardant panels was erected within three weeks. The house's design is very simple and emphasizes the horizontal. The white windows contrast with the red-brown colour of the wood. The downpipes on the sides already appear like a vertical design element. The northern part of the house features a large room on the ground floor.

History
The Heritage Institute assumes that Konrad Wachsmann designed this wooden house in 1929. The company Christoph und Unmack from Niesky built this school.Even if the authorship of Wachsmann can never be proven, the connection with Christoph und Unmack and that Wachsmann came from Frankfurt (Oder) is a very conceivable.
The hospital needed more space for its school and made its decision for this construction. It housed class rooms and one teacher's apartment. At the time the building is abandoned.
