context_page_description: Hönigsberg & Deutsch was an architecture studio and construction company formed in Zagreb by architects Leo Hönigsberg and Julio Deutsch, active between 1889 and 1911. They produced over 90 known works in the Lower Town area of Zagreb, built during the redevelopment in the years following the 1880 Zagreb earthquake. The majority of these were residential houses, but they also designed manufacturing plants, synagogues and public institution buildings.
context_section_description: Leo Hönigsberg (Zagreb, 1861 – Zagreb, 1911) and Julije Deutsch (Geppersdorf, 1859 – Zagreb, 1922) both studied in Vienna at the Technische Hochschule (today the Vienna University of Technology) under Heinrich von Ferstel, where Deutsch graduated in 1882 and Hönigsberg in 1883. Hönigsberg then trained at the studios of Ludwig Tischler (1883–84) and Anton Krones (1885–86), while Julije Deutsch worked for a time in Paris with Camille Lefèvre.
  In 1887 Hönigsberg returned to Zagreb, and was joined by Julije Deutsch the following year. They worked at Kuno Waidmann's studio  in 1888 on the recommendation of Hermann Helmer. In 1889 they founded the Hönigsberg & Deutsch bureau, which soon grew into one of the largest building companies in Zagreb. The company worked on more than 100 projects in Zagreb and northern Croatia, mostly residential buildings and state institutions, although most of the company's projects after 1900 were done by other architects working at their studio. After Hönigsberg died in 1911 the studio was taken over by Julije Deutsch, and after he died in 1922 his son Pavao Deutsch inherited it. He then joined Aleksandar Freudenreich and founded the Freudenreich & Deutsch studio in 1923 which was active until 1940.
