history

View around 1910

The villa was built for the client Dietrich Jakob Vißer. In 1854 it became the property of Josef Herbertz. His widow had the property expanded in 1872 to include a coach house, a greenhouse , a stable and a laundry room. From 1882 the Villa Da Bocha belonged to Vianna Francesco Pereira. In 1888 Hugo von Obernitz , General and Adjutant of Kaiser Wilhelm II , bought it as a retirement home after his departure. He lived in the property with his wife Anna von Usedom until his death in 1901. The subsequent owner, after whom the house was named “Villa Modersohn”, lived here for around 50 years. In 1979, a local company, as the meanwhile owner, sold the villa with a plot of 5,500 m² to the owner of the neighboring Rhine Clinic to the north , the Evangelical Johanneswerk . He intended to demolish the building for an extension to the clinic. As the monument value of the villa was recognized at the time and it was therefore placed under monument protection a few months after the sale , this plan failed.

From 1984 the villa was uninhabited. In 1988 it was partially destroyed by a negligent arson , especially inside, and was then given two new roofs, maintaining the original condition. A renovation of the villa for the Rhein-Klinik was planned from 1991, the actual use of the property remained open at first. From 1997 the management of the clinic intended to set up a day clinic for psychotherapeutic medicine there. In response to the application submitted to the state government in 1999, a positive decision was issued in 2002 and the corresponding financial resources were approved in 2003. The construction work, which also included an extension and a winter garden , began in November 2004 and was completed in early 2006. In the following spring, the new, semi-inpatient day clinic with 16 places and a usable area of 500 m² went into operation. At the beginning it was one of the few institutions of its kind in the region.

The villa was entered in the monuments list of the city of Bad Honnef on March 16, 1984.

The entrance area has a glazed veranda , and an outside staircase leads from the terrace of the newly created winter garden into the garden. The cellar is barrel vaulted . An extensive park area belongs to the villa.
