history
At the end of the 19th century, Bremerhaven grew northwards to the limit of the neighboring independent Prussian municipality of Lehe . Bremerhaven acquired considerable new areas in this area by 1905. Several single-family houses were built in this then Leher open-air area, including three single-family houses from 1902 onwards by the W. Rogge construction company; so also the villa for the senior of the construction company, Wilhelm Rogge. They are among the few examples of Art Nouveau in Bremen.
In the one-story Art Nouveau house for Theodor Rahusen with a mansard roof , the playful dormer and the bay window in the rounded stepped gable , the façade design with a horseshoe arch framing the windows and the soft curves of the parapet on the entrance stairs are characteristic. The architect was probably Gustav Rogge, who worked in the construction company. He also planned his house at Birkenweg 7 in the English country house style. In 1907, according to plans by the building contractor Georg Hoffmeyer, a minor renovation took place.
The State Office for Monument Preservation Bremen found: "... the facade design ... (is) unprecedented in the state of Bremen and suggests a supraregional influence ..."
Today (2018) there is a pension in the house.
