Nice street

The Nizzastraße is a city road the Saxon town of Radebeul , in the districts Serkowitz and Oberlößnitz . It is highlighted in the Dehio manual for the late classicist, country house-like houses, and the former manor house Haus Thieme with its recessed upper floor is also mentioned .

Location and development

Karl May's residence at Nizzastraße 13, a Greek country house after Ernst Ziller

The Nizzastraße as a street begins at Mühlweg, from where it runs east; to the west extends a sanded connection path to Paradiesstraße , which crosses the tracks of the Lößnitzgrundbahn and the Lößnitzbach and lies on the green areas of the floodplain. The beginning of the street is formed by the two villas No. 6 and No. 7, which have turrets as counterparts to the street corner. From there, the even house numbers run on the south side, most recently number 70 on Alvslebenplatz .

Many of the buildings on Nizzastraße are now listed and are therefore listed in the list of cultural monuments in Radebeul-Serkowitz and in the list of cultural monuments in Radebeul-Oberlößnitz , some of them under the addresses of side streets:

• Oberlößnitz: No. 6 , No. 7 , No. 9 , No. 10 , No. 11 , No. 12 , Villa Agnes (Lößnitzgrundstraße 2, formerly No. 13)
• Serkowitz: Hoflößnitzstraße 4 , Friedlandstraße 1 , transformer station on Augustusweg , No. 19 , Rosenstraße 15, No. 24, No. 30 , Wasastraße 68 , Thieme house (No. 69)

The No. 35 won the Radebeul Builders Prize in 2004 .

The country house-like villas No. 9, 11 and 13 of the Ziller brothers, which with their Greek appearance are reminiscent of their older brother Ernst Ziller, who worked in Greece, are a specialty .

Naming

Parts of the later road were documented by the cartographer Nienborg as early as 1735. It was about the Niedere Berggasse , which later became the Untere Bergstraße with the expansion of the alley system running across the Lößnitzabbruch ; in Serkowitz then also Untere Weinbergstrasse . Beginning in the western part in Oberlößnitz, the road was systematically developed from 1879 by the master builders, the Ziller brothers ; in the 1880s they built the villas up to about Friedlandstrasse. In 1891/1892 the Villa Nizzastraße 30 was built halfway along the Dr.-Schmincke-Allee . The road was then expanded in 1895. In the same year the older of the brothers, Moritz Ziller , died, in 1901 the younger brother Gustav followed .

After a saying by the Saxon King Johann around 1860, in which he referred to the area as Saxon Nice , it was named Nizzastraße in 1903 .

local residents

In the first half of the 1890s, the writer Karl May lived for rent in the Villa Agnes (at the address Nizzastraße 13, today Lößnitzgrundstraße 2) before buying his Villa Shatterhand , which is now the Karl May Museum .

The villa of the French-German valve horn virtuoso and composer Josef Rudolf Lewy Verh. Lies diagonally across the crossing area adjacent to the Villa Agnes . Lewy-Hoffmann , where he lived in the decades before Karl May at Hoflößnitzstraße 4 .

The Saxon Major General Ernst Hugo von Wolf lived since his marriage to Karoline Luise "Lonny" von Oppell in 1868 in the Ebenrecht house (Nizzastraße 53, corner of Gutenbergstraße) of the von Oppell family . The house was demolished today and the large property with the Radisson Blu Park Hotel & Conference Center is being built on. This hotel was built between 1993 and 1994 by the construction company Baresel and opened as Hotel Steigenberger.
