history

The villa was built for the client Jean Finig according to plans by the Bonn architect Hermann Schmitt (* 1854; † after 1938). It was originally intended as a half villa to form one half of a planned semi-detached house , the other half of which was no longer built. The building application is dated June 19, 1913.

After Bonn became the seat of government of the Federal Republic of Germany in 1949 , the villa was located in the middle of the new parliament and government district . In 1958, Hermann Mathias Görgen , a member of the Bundestag, bought the property. In 1961 the villa became the property of the federal government for DM 200,000 . It housed part of the Federal Government's Press and Information Office with 26 employees (as of 1974) and later part of the administration of the German Bundestag until the latter moved to Berlin in the summer of 1999 when the seat of parliament and government was relocated . Since then, the property has been vacant and was sold by the federal government around 2007 after attempts to use it by an international organization based in Bonn failed. From 2014 to 2015, the villa was extensively renovated for office use and an extension (Adenauerallee 210) was built on the left side of the street, the shape and design of which is based on the existing building. Since January 2016, the building has belonged to the headquarters of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC), which was previously located in the villa to the south and has accommodated around 30 employees here.

The villa was entered in the city ​​of Bonn's list of monuments on April 30, 1986.
