history

Leonhardt House (1901)

The property is a corner lot on Bennostraße and Hoflößnitzstraße. The oldest surviving building is an outbuilding on the vineyard wall along Hoflößnitzstrasse, which dates from around 1800. In 1843 the late Classicist main house was built on Bennostraße, while the large entrance gate was built at the intersection.

The later owner Karl Leonhardt (1870–1920), who was also an architect and builder himself and is buried in Radebeul, changed the main house as well as the outbuilding in 1904. So he built an arbor-like porch on the north garden side of the main house and added a wrought-iron balcony to the right side view, and at the same time the wrought-iron grille was inserted into the corner gate. He added the polygonal stair tower to the outbuilding.

Another small farm building on Hoflößnitzstrasse collapsed in 1997 and was subsequently demolished.
