history

Half-villa by Schloezer, front elevation (1905)

The house was built in 1905 as half of a double villa (half villa) according to plans by the Berlin architects Kayser & von Großheim , whose local representative was the architect Heinrich Rings, on the newly parceled plot of the Villa Franz Heinrich Freiherr von Rigal (built 1846, demolished in 1905/06 ). His grandchildren, Franz Ludwig Maximilian von Rigal and Maria Pauline Henriette (married) von Schloezer , had the villa torn down and, also based on a design by Kayser & von Großheim, had Schaumburg-Lippe-Strasse built as a private road including a staircase from the banks of the Rhine . Both of them acted as builders of the double villa, with the house Schaumburg-Lippe-Strasse 5 from Rigal and the house Schaumburg-Lippe-Strasse 7 from Schloezer. On the building application from 15./16. June 1905, after revised plans had been submitted in the meantime, the building permit for the new construction of the double villa was granted on August 5th . On August 26, the base decrease was made and on November 8, the final acceptance of the new building. Von Rigal rented the house to others.

In 1918, a planned lowering of the courtyard to reduce the moisture in the masonry failed due to exceptional provisions from the First World War . In 1919 work began on changing the front garden fence . In 1936 the building authority refused a permit to convert the double villa, which consisted of two single-family houses, into three apartments. In July 1944, the Reichsminschaft Brühler Knappschaft , now presumably the owner of the house , began construction work to convert half-villa No. 5 into an office building, which was demolished in August 1944.

During the Second World War , the double villa was severely damaged in the Allied aerial warfare : while half villa No. 7 was largely preserved, the gable wall and street front of half villa No. 5 were in danger of collapsing. At house number 7 the roof was restored in a reduced form and the decor removed. House number 5 was empty after it was vacated in February 1952. By the beginning of 1953, the remains of this half-villa had been demolished, and an office building directly adjacent to the neighboring house was built in its place.

In 1973 the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen rented the preserved half-villa in order to use it as an office building for its state representative (→ State representative of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen (Bonn) ) based in the neighboring Villa Schaumburg-Lippe-Straße 9 . In the course of the relocation of the seat of parliament and government , the Bremen state representation moved to Berlin in 1999 . The Institute for the Future of Work took over and acquired both buildings of the former state representation.
