The house of Dr. Geyer , Herkulesstraße 4 in Dresden - Gruna , is a house built in 1934/1935 according to plans by the architect Adam Gutjahr for Dr. Kurt Geyer . The listed building, along with the Krieger and Klemperer houses, is one of the few remaining private residential buildings that were erected in Dresden between 1933 and 1945.

The "dignified craftsmanship and the use of natural materials" is remarkable. The house has been lavishly clad with quarry stone like the Omsewitz plan. The yellow-brown to gray color of the quarry stone harmonises with the dark gray slate of the roof. For the jambs of the windows was Cotta sandstone used.
