history
In 1726 the silk merchant Simon Post acquired the 65 meter wide site and had the baroque park built in 1768 according to plans by Gottlieb Altmann for his grandson Simon Hermann Post , the Syndicus of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen, opposite Höpkensruh (also von Altmann) and Muhles Park . From 1810 the park was redesigned into an English garden based on designs by Hinrich Retberg .
The senator, lawyer and archivist Gerhard Caesar (1792–1874) bought the estate in 1829 and built the country house. In 1875 Emma Holler bought the estate and in 1912 the Ichon family (see Eduard Ichon ), after whom the park is named. The two-storey, plastered, white country house from 1843 with a central projection and hipped roof was designed for Caesar von Eggers in the classicism style.
In 1970, the Simon-Hermann-Post-Weg was built on part of the site . The park was then two hectares.
Today (2018) the property is used as a five-storey senior citizens' residence of the foundation residence Ichon-Park of the Bremer Heimstiftung with 51 apartments and flats, which were built until 1977 according to plans by Wilfried Turk and which included the villa with its one-storey extension.
