architecture

The villa was built around 1867 in an Italian country house style for the doctor Dr. Gfrörer built. As stone, strip blocks made of Heilbronn sandstone were used. The facade of the first floor was structured by blind windows with flat segment arches and diamond cuboids above the windows. The upper floor was set off by a cornice and had window balustrades and a continuous horizontal sandstone band at window height. Facing the avenue, the upper floor had two arched niches with vases, above them floral garlands. On the left flank stepped forward a dwelling with an antique gable and figural decorations. The dwarf house was dominated by a campanile , which had three-part windows on all four sides and provided access to a roof garden.

history

Today the property has the address Allee 2, formerly Obere Allee 10 and 12. The name of the villa comes from its temporary owner Georg Härle . He was married to the widowed Pauline Bruckmann, Peter Bruckmann's mother . This is why the villa is sometimes called Villa Bruckmann .

A few years after the Villa Härle, the Heilbronn synagogue was built on the neighboring property on the left .

In 1936/37 the villa became the gynecological clinic of Dr. Wilhelm Kahleyß.

The villa was badly damaged in the air raid on Heilbronn , and the ruins were torn down on September 1, 1948.

The Heilbronner Voice bought the property and had a high-rise built there in 1957 based on designs by Gustav Ernst Kistenmacher .
