Adolph Boesel House
Adolph Boesel House

The Adolph Boesel House is a historic house in New Bremen, Ohio, United States. Built in 1898 in a combination of the Stick-Eastlake and Queen Anne styles of architecture, it was the home of a leading New Bremen citizen. Beginning in the 1860s, the Boesel name was associated with banking in New Bremen. In 1866, Charles Boesel established a small bank in New Bremen that expanded throughout the nineteenth century. Despite a split in the business in 1905, the Boesels remained in control of the original corporation, which was soon renamed the "First City Bank of New Bremen." Adolph Boesel later became president of this corporation, which in 1923 maintained deposits of nearly $570,000.: 422  Adolph was the son of Jacob Boesel, a two-term member of the Ohio House of Representatives, who was Charles' oldest son. Besides serving the community as a banker for more than forty years,: 471–472  Boesel was a member of the local government, acting as the village's treasurer in 1905.Boesel erected his house along Franklin Street on the village's western side in 1898; after he left the residence, it was the home of Alfred Rabe. A two-story structure with an attic, the house is a distinctive example of local architecture. In recognition of its place in local history, the Adolph Boesel House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. Despite this honor, it was later classified as demolished by the Ohio Historical Society because the home was moved from its original location. A new house occupies its original address. The house remains listed on the National Register.

Julius Boesel House

The Julius Boesel House is a historic house near the village of New Bremen in the northwestern part of the U.S. state of Ohio. Located in German Township in southwestern Auglaize County, it is a well-preserved Queen Anne mansion.Said to be designed by J.A. Chapin of Lima, the design of the house is based heavily on Design No. 53 from George Franklin Barber's Cottage Souvenir #2. The house was built for Julius Boesel, a leading member of New Bremen society. The design mixed brick and frame construction, sitting atop a stone foundation, to produce this twenty-room, two-and-a-half story house. When Boesel and his family moved into the house in late October 1895, the local newspaper spoke favorably of the new building, calling it "one of the finest in the county" and observing that the "view of the building while coming from Lock Two almost makes a person feel as though he were entering the suburb of a big city.": 217  Included on the property was a massive carriage house.After being extensively modified in the third quarter of the twentieth century, the house was purchased in 1976 by Donald and Jacqui Kuck, who began a long-term restoration program. Included in their program was the removal of intrusive elements such as lowered ceilings and carpets on the walls.: 217  The Kucks were able to restore the house to the point that it qualified for addition to the National Register of Historic Places,: 219  and it was listed on the Register on March 30, 1985.
