French architect
Louis Remy de la Fosse (c. 1659–1726) was a French architect during the Baroque period, who worked primarily in Germany.[1][2]
Until 1705, he was draftsman in the studio of master builder Johann Friedrich Eosander [de] in Berlin. From 1706 to 1709, Fosse was architect at the court of Elector Georg Ludwig in Hanover and later castle planner in Schlitz and Kassel.[3] From 1711 to 1714 he was court architect in Hanover and afterwards senior engineer in the service of Ernest Louis, Landgrave of Hesse-Darmstadt.[4]
In 1717, he build the Orangerie in Darmstadt.[2] Fosse was commissioned to completely redesign the Residential Palace Darmstadt.[5] Due to lack of funds, only the main front and one wing of the large complex were realized.[4]
