The garden house, built in 1747, is not only the last of its kind in the city, but is also closely associated with Luise Hensel (1798 - 1876), the poetess of the well-known evening song "Müde bin ich geh zur Ruh". Hensel spent the last years of her life in Paderborn's Westphalenhof, which today houses a retirement home. In the garden house, the poet enjoyed resting her mind and her work.
