history

Jean Cesar Godeffroy (1742–1818) was the first client to commission the master builder Christian Frederik Hansen, responsible for the Danish parts of Holstein and Altona / Elbe , to build a country house in 1789. The construction time was about three years. The villa consists of a two-storey central building with five axes and two single-storey side wings with three axes. The entrance door to the north is framed by two large sandstone pillars. “The calm and wise enjoyment” is the inscription that greets every visitor. It is said to come from the Danish theologian Peter Christian Steenvinkel (1742–99). The garden or south side has a semicircular central part.

Three generations of Johan Cesar Godeffroy and their families lived in the country house during the summer months for about 100 years . There is no knowledge of the institution at that time. It is reported that it was refurbished in 1856 by Ludwig Piglhein . From 1880 the country house was inhabited all year round. Johan Cesar Godeffroy died here on February 9, 1885.

Johan Cesar Godeffroy (1781–1845) had a garden house built on the site in 1835 by the Hamburg architect Alexis de Chateauneuf for 3,300 Marks Banco .

In 1890 the house and park were sold to the businessman Ernst August Wriedt. In 1924 the house and parks were acquired by the Blankenese community before they passed to Hamburg with the Greater Hamburg Law in 1938.

The park was temporarily open to the public during the Godeffroys' lifetime. It has been freely accessible to the public as deer park since 1924 , the premises of the house are rented to a ballet school.
