The Technical University of Dortmund mourns the death of Dr. Hans Stimmann (* 9 March 1941; † 30 August 2025)

09/08/2025

It is with deep regret that we say goodbye.

It is with deep regret that we bid farewell to Dr. Hans Stimmann, who passed away
at the age of 84. As a long-standing and
influential Senate Building Director in Berlin, he leaves behind an
impressive legacy in urban planning and the design of urban
spaces.

Dr. Hans Stimmann was an honorary professor at the
Department of Urban Design from 2007 to 2014. In this role, he not only taught
, but also inspired and influenced.

With exciting guest lectures from 2013 to 2020 at the Chair of History
and Theory of Architecture, Dr. Hans Stimmann enriched us as a
valuable member of the academic community.

Our condolences go out to his family and all his loved ones at this
difficult time.

The Dean, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Mike Gralla

Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering at TU Dortmund University
