Gaedtvilla in May 2009

The former Gaedtvilla is a listed building in the Saxon town of Aue-Bad Schlema . It was built from 1912 to 1913 and served as the home of the factory owner Peter Paul Gaedt .

Located at Schneeberger Strasse 47, the massive building with cast stone cladding and a semicircular winter garden surrounded by a seven-arched arcade was built between 1911 and 1912 by the Leipzig architect Johannes Koppe . The plumber and builder Paul Gaedt, who moved from Mecklenburg , was a great admirer of the Low German poet and narrator Fritz Reuter . He therefore called his property the Reutergarten residential building , and on its garden side there was a wall fountain with a portrait of the poet. The entrance hall and staircase are made of Italian marble . In the winter garden added in 1921, pilasters , door frames and wall fountains made of Meissen ceramics are remarkable. The terraced garden is characterized by brick pergolas .

Paul Gaedt married the daughter of the cutlery manufacturer Carl August Wellner in 1891 and from 1895 became co-owner of the flourishing factory .

Today the building is used as a law office and residential building.
