German architect Herr zu Putlitz initially trained as a stonemason, and was employed to restore the dome of Magdeburg, but from 1908-09 studied in Magdeburg at the Arts and Crafts School. Shortly before World War I zu Putlitz presented his first architectural design for the Schauspielhaus Theatre in Düsseldorf. Between the two World Wars he first worked in Sofia, and then mainly in Hamburg and Rostock. He was a member of the Nazi Party and helped with designs of buildings for the state and the Nazis. His architectural style was neo-classicism, and later monumentalism, which was later termed Nazi architecture. Zu Putlitz died shortly before the end of World War II.
