history

House Rudell, architectural drawing

Around 1877 the Ziller brothers opened up the former Sophienstrasse at their own expense , which after completion was handed over to the rural community of Oberlößnitz. In order to upgrade the street that begins at a small square (Alvslebenplatz) or Nizzastraße , the Ziller brothers built the Sophienhof as the first building on this street at their own expense , with the main view facing south towards the square and with a tower furnished villa in the form of a building group.

The Sophienhof , together with the tower, was a modification of a Ziller standard house type that was built several times on this street. In order to demonstrate the versatility of this type of house, the Ziller brothers built another group building of this type in 1878 on the same side of the street, just at the other end at Königsplatz (today Eduard-Bilz-Platz ) on Augustusweg. Apart from the missing tower, the mezzanine-like upper floor of the Sophienhof was raised. In addition, instead of the coupling windows in the gable, the main building was given a Palladian motif , and a polygonal stand bay window was pulled out of the wall below. Overall, the window openings were distributed differently. Instead of the acroteren on the roof, hanging pegs came under the roof. The connecting structure was not designed to be flat, but was also given a gable roof at the level of the adjoining building. The building owners replaced the entrance through the columned entrance portico of the Sophienhof with a glass veranda.

According to the address book from 1915, the highly decorated Colonel Count Ernst Bernhard Vitzthum von Eckstädt , father of the art historian Georg Vitzthum von Eckstädt, who was born there, lived there .
