history

The villa "together with the stable building" in the then Capellenbergstrasse 2 b (later 11) built master bricklayer Albert Lüdicke († probably 1901, at the latest 1903) in the years 1873/74 for the Berlin editor and writer Albert Brockhoff.

In 1885 at the latest, Albert Lüdicke was the owner of the property. He rented out the villa, expanded it in 1890, enlarged the horse stable on the rear property in 1895 and built another outbuilding in 1898. According to the Potsdam address books for 1903 and 1904, the widow Johanna Lüdicke, née Schloeth, is the subsequent owner, in 1905 the unmarried Else Lüdicke and from 1907 to 1910 "Lüdicke's heirs". As early as 1906, master bricklayer Wilhelm Berend (1851–1931) planned a shed for “A. Schulze, b. Lüdicke ”. The post inspector's widow, residing at “Am Alten Markt 7”, is entered as the sole owner in the address books for 1912 and 1914, in the address book for 1917 again as “Lüdickes Erben” and from 1919 Anna Schulze, residing at “Alte Luisenstrasse 72” (later Zeppelinstrasse).

The Potsdam address book for 1922 shows the banker Max Kahle as the owner and from 1925 at the latest the “E. Kahlesche Erben ”. Max Kahle from the family was one of the residents living in the house and, according to the address book, was Elfriede Kahle for 1938/1939.

architecture

The yellow brick building is two-story with a hipped roof . A rear tower with a helmet towers over the roof ridge of the house. A corner projecting protrudes from the northern side of the house, which is emphasized by a flat cantilevered bay window with a crowning Renaissance gable . The entrance area on the north side is designed similarly. Originally there was an upwardly open veranda in front of the southern half of the house, which was later covered with a balcony resting on pillars and columns. Arched twin windows illuminated the upper floor, segmented arched windows the ground floor. Lüdicke extended the villa to the south and designed the annex almost mirror-inverted with a second corner projection. In 1929 the three twin windows in the back half of the house were replaced by three arched windows. Molded stones adorn the gables and windows of the risalites. Blue glazed stones embedded in geometric patterns adorn the facades.
