Hauptstrasse 6 (Bad Honnef)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The building at Hauptstrasse 6 (also called Villa Bredt-Lipp ) was a villa in Bad Honnef , a town in the Rhein-Sieg district in North Rhine-Westphalia , which was built in 1871 and demolished in 1974. It was located on the site of the ruins of Reitersdorf Castle in today's Reitersdorf Park .

history

The villa was built for General Hermann von Seidlitz according to plans by the architect Brauweiler. The building application for the house was made on April 28, 1871, followed by another on July 12, 1871 for the construction of a gardener's house. When the villa was built in 1872, parts of Reitersdorf Castle were exposed, but then filled in again. Presumably at the end of the 1870s, the property passed into the possession of the politician Wilhelm August Bredt (1817–1895), who moved to Honnef after his retirement and who founded the Hohenhonnef pulmonary hospital in the city . His widow Amalie, nee von der Leyen (1830–1926), submitted an application on August 18, 1895 to rebuild buildings on the property that had been damaged by fire. She lived in the villa to the last and rented some of it. The couple's son, the chemist Julius Bredt (1855–1937), who bequeathed it to his adopted daughter, the chemist and professor Maria Lipp (1892–1966), became the next owner . In December 1972 the property passed into the possession of the city of Bad Honnef after an expropriation procedure and a notarial agreement. In autumn 1974 she had the villa demolished to build a health clinic there. This plan was not implemented. The demolition of the villa enabled excavation work to uncover the foundations of Reitersdorf Castle, which took place in 1980.

The villa's former gardener's house (An St. Göddert 12) has been preserved. It is a listed building as a monument .
