architecture
The stately villa building of the Louise Gueury Foundation's clinic ensemble is located in the Hardter Forest , based freely on town houses from the Bergisch Baroque . two-storey rectangular building with a mansard roof that has been extended and hipped on one side . Symmetrically structured front in nine axes ; Vertically covered windows of differing height and width, cut smoothly into the reveals . Rough plastered floor and from the roof to cross over the floor Verschieferung of the walls. Emphasis on the central yoke by a rising triangular gable; on the ground floor by a three-axis porch in which the house entrance, accessible via a two- flight staircase , is located. In the middle of the hipped roof , which closes the porch, is a bay window in the form of a segment arch , which extends up into the roof zone and contains the stairwell , which is illuminated by five narrow, one above the other, vertical rectangular windows.
The copper-clad domed roof is flanked to the right and left by an oblong window. In the two axes adjoining the gable above the circumferential eaves , each has a two-branch dormer window with a segmental arch. In the upper gable field a single vertical oval window.
The north-western side front shows three vertical rectangular windows arranged asymmetrically from the center to the right and closely grouped together on the ground floor and first floor. The roof area below the hip breaks through a broad, three-branched dormer, also crowned with segmental arches. A tail gable illuminated on two levels with a total of five windows accentuates the opposite side front. On the ground floor it is divided into three wall panels of the same format by wall templates, each of which is opened through a wide window. On the upper floor there is a single window in the middle. The rear front emphasizes a risalit in front of the right building section with a tail gable analogous to the side front. The evenly dense windowing essentially corresponds to that of the front; however, the two dormer windows are arranged to the left of the gable.
The windows are made of plastic and renewed (so-called "bars in aspic"). The glazed and plastic-framed entrance area has also been changed. The original shutters have been preserved from the time it was built . The interior has been modernized and rebuilt in line with today's use as a conference center for mentally handicapped children. The original spatial planning was essentially retained.
