history

Elevation of the street front (1906)

The villa was created for the client and based on a design by the Bonn architect August Scheidgen , who wanted to use it as the home and headquarters of his architectural office . The first building application was received in May 1905 , and the building permit was granted in September . At the time the shell was accepted in December 1905, the plans had been changed again so that the acceptance test could only take place in August 1906. Afterwards, the roofing of a blueprint machine and the construction of a gazebo were carried out.

The villa and the (originally private) spur road that served it were built on the former garden plot of the Kortegarn private school , whose new owner Christian Bungarten had another villa built on the opposite side of the street at the same time . In terms of style , Villa Scheidgen can be assigned to the late Art Nouveau .

In June 1949, the villa, now located on the northern edge of the new parliament and government district, became the property of the Federal Republic of Germany together with neighboring buildings. An increase in the villa to five floors was planned for this year, but was not carried out. The villa initially belonged to the property of the Foreign Office , which moved into a new office building immediately south in 1955 . Later it housed part of the Federal Ministry for Post and Telecommunications, which is also adjacent to its main building, with eight employees (status: 1974). In the mid-1980s, the villa was to give way to a 400 m long new building for the Foreign Office, but its implementation was dropped.

The building is still owned by the federal government and is currently vacant (as of July 2012). In the future, it is to become part of the property of the Federal Office of Justice and include the publicly accessible express information so that it remains outside the security area of ​​the property.
