Club house of the Chemnitz Lawn Tennis Club
The clubhouse of the Chemnitz Lawn Tennis Club was a clubhouse building on Goethestrasse in Chemnitz from 1908 until after the Second World War .
It was built in 1908 on the order of the Chemnitz entrepreneur Fritz Eugen Esche (1876–1953) by the Belgian architect Henry van de Velde on a limited area. Van de Velde also furnished the bar room as well as the reading and board rooms with furniture, lights and carpets.
The remarkable building, of which only a few preserved furniture and historical photographs by the Weimar court photographer Louis Held (1857–1927) testify, was demolished after the Second World War to give way to the construction of social housing.
