House of the Seven Lazy Brothers
The House of the Seven Lazy Brothers ((ドイツ語:Haus der Sieben Faulen)) is a historic building in Bremen, Germany, completed in 1927. With a name based on a local legend, the building located in Böttcherstraße in the old town was built by the prosperous coffee merchant Ludwig Roselius to a design by Bremen architects Eduard Scotland and Alfred Runge.〔, Retrieved 4 February 2014, in German.〕 The first version of the house was home to the advertising department of Roselius's coffee company and the ''Deutscher Werkbund'' association of craftsmen. When it was rebuilt in 1954 the new design was based on a traditional local story.〔(House of the 7 Lazy Brothers ), Boettcherstrasse.de, retrieved 5 February 2014〕
==Background==
Crafted by Bernhard Hoetger, the Fountain of the Seven Lazy Brothers bordering the 1954 rebuild of the house〔 was based on a legend about the sons of a local farmer who were considered lazy as they could find no work in Bremen. After venturing into the wide world for a few years, they returned to the city. With the benefit of experience, they worked in their father's fields, dug drainage ditches and built a dyke next to the Weser which prevented it from flooding. The citizens finally realized how astute they had been. While the fountain still presents seven lazy figures, the proud, upright statues on the gable above show how hard-working they had been.
