Beautiful villa built from black slade, in very good condition, surrounded by garden with flowers. Immaculate interior with much attention to historical details, history buffs will love it. In memory of a great man assisting his colleague Karl Marx reveal the intricacies of finance within a Capitalist society in the industrial age. Doubtless a great contribution to the bankers of the day who were said to have commissioned the study as published in "Das Kapital". Not recognised officially as such, the contributions of Engels and Marx had a great impact on refining the world of Capitalist finance to the delight of Marx' fourth cousin, Mr Rothschild. I was happy to be a temporary neighbour while living with my sister when visiting my old good neighbourhood during a sabbatical from downunder. Good to be home again, great food and company, there's lots to see around Wuppertal. It's worthwhile visiting the...

Excellent experience! I’ve never had such a wonderful time in a museum. Beyond learning about the life of the brilliant Friedrich Engels, the welcoming staff made the visit even better. All the staff members were friendly and approachable.

I arrived at the museum around five on Sunday. Even in the exhibition rooms, I received warm greetings. Impressed by their service, I asked about guided tours and was provided with a highly professional and detailed explanation. Although my German is limited, the warm-hearted guide patiently used simple German and translated key terms into English (he actually explained so much—thanks a lot!).

The exhibition itself was both educational and informative. I highly recommend visiting here if you’re in Wuppertal. There’s also an Industry Museum nearby, but it’s temporarily closed. According to the staff, it should reopen by the end...

Man spürt Herrn P. ab, dass er auf ein langes Berufsleben als Lehrer zurückschauen kann. Meine Schüler hingen ihm bei seiner mit Verve durchgeführten Führung durchs frisch renovierte Engels-Haus an den Lippen. Gut fand ich, dass er auch auf die kritischen Fragen meiner Schüler einging (z. B. inwiefern Engels und Marx für den Stalinismus verantwortlich gemacht werden können) und auch das fromme Elternhaus Engels nicht zu kurz kam.

Ich fühle mich den erweckten Eltern Friedrich Engels sehr viel näher und habe ihrer beim wunderbaren Ausblick auf Barmen und die Unterbarmer Hauptkirche im Anschluss an die Führung auf dem Heimweg gedacht.

Wie viel Leid wäre der Menschheit erspart geblieben, wenn Friedrich Engels den Gott seiner Eltern und Großeltern kennen gelernt und sein geistiges und materielles Kapital in den Dienst des Reiches Gottes gestellt hätte statt es im Rotlichtmileu von Paris oder an die kommunistische Partei zu vergeuden!

Zumindest war er in jungen Jahren nicht fern vom Reich Gottes:

"Herr Jesu Christe, Gottes Sohn, O steig herab von Deinem Thron, und rette meine Seele! O komm mit Deiner Seligkeit, Du Glanz der Vaterherrlichkeit Gib, daß ich Dich nur wähle! Lieblich, Herrlich, Ohne Leide ist die Freude, wenn dort Oben, wir Dich, unsern Heiland loben! Gib, daß dereinst zu seiner Zeit, wenn mich erfaßt des Todes Leid, Ich fest an Dir mich halte; daß ich, wenn mir das Aug’ vergeht, des Herzens Pulsschlag stille steht, Ich froh in Dir erkalte! Fortan wird dann Dich dort oben Mein Geist loben, ohne Enden denn er ist in Deinen Händen. O wär sie da, die Zeit der Lust, wo ich an Deiner Liebesbrust vom Tode soll erwarmen! Dann seh’ ich, Gott, ich dank es Dir, die all’, die waren theuer mir, kann ewig sie umarmen! Ewig, ewig, ewiglebend, vor Dir stehend, Dich zu sehen Wird mein Leben neu erblühen. Du kamst, die Menschheit zu erlösen, vom Tod’ sie zu befrein und Bösen, zu bringen ihr Dein Glück und Heil. Kommst Du nun herab zur Erden, da wird durch Dich es anders werden, da theilst Du jedem zu sein Theil."

(entstanden kurz vor seiner...
