Villa Goethestrasse 1 (Dresden-Seevorstadt)

Villa Goethestrasse 1 / Parkstrasse (Dresden-Seevorstadt)

The Villa Goethestrasse 1 (today Gret-Palucca-Strasse) in Dresden was built by Karl Eberhard from 1869 to 1870 as a "characteristic building of the Dresden School" on the corner of Parkstrasse and destroyed in 1945.

description

The building was two or two and a half stories high. The front length of an asymmetrical façade facing Goethestrasse was 5 window axes long, while that of the symmetrical side facade was four window axes long. A three-storey stair tower in the central axis dominated the right 4-axis side view. There were side elevations on the façade, the left elevation being half a storey higher than the right. It was a sandstone building that was divided by cornices and bands, the wall surface being grooved by horizontal cornices. The window frames showed a pilaster architecture with a Palladian motif. A rich, delicate relief could be seen on the two side projections. There were also lush relief works below the cornice.

history

The southern side streets of Parkstrasse - the eastern extension of the Dresdner Bürgerwiese - were redeveloped as a residential area around 1870. Villa Goethestrasse 1 was on the eastern corner of Parkstrasse, across from Villa Parkstrasse 2 , which was on the western corner and was built around the same time . As the first owner of the building (or the plot of land to be built on), the Dresden address book from 1869 lists the particular AFW Rahe, and "Rahe's heirs" are already entered in the following year. At that time the widow Rahe also lived in the house that she rented to the Prussian embassy in Dresden a few years later. The envoy was Count Carl von Dönhoff for over 20 years. Around 1910 the house became the property of the Leipzig Economic Society .
