Villa Hueck

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Villa Hueck in 2012

The Villa Hueck is a listed neo-baroque factory owner's villa and park at Humboldtstrasse 36 in downtown Lüdenscheid . The three-storey Villa Hueck has a built-up area of ​​around 960 square meters plus an annex and a park of more than 6000 square meters. The villa is entered in the monument list of the city of Lüdenscheid under monument number 128.

The villa was built in 1913 by the architect Ludwig Conradi from Wuppertal on behalf of Richard Noelle. Oskar Eduard Hueck then acquired this villa and between 1929 and 1993 it was inhabited by the Hueck family. After that, the facility in Humboldtstrasse was also known as the Humboldt Villa and was used as a retirement home until February 2009. The building has been empty since then. Sales negotiations had failed until 2012 primarily due to the requirements of the monument protection.

Renovation work on the Villa Hueck

At the moment the old "Villa Hueck" at Humboldtstrasse 36 is being completely redesigned. The splendid neo-baroque building is to be reopened in 2013 - with a restaurant and bistro, wine shop, assembly rooms and an apartment - as the domicile of the Lüdenscheid service clubs and a meeting place for business, politics and culture. The project should focus on “serving the common good” and “promoting the community”. The representative villa, which was built by Richard Noelle in 1913 and was owned by the Hueck family between 1929 and 1993, was last used as the “Villa Reseda” old people's home and has been vacant since February 2009. According to the project planners, the concept for the use of the built-up area of ​​958 square meters plus the extension and the more than 6000 square meter park should already be in place. Commitments from several donors have meanwhile also been received.

For example, it is still unclear where the around 40 required parking spaces will be located on the site. The roof of the old bunker next to the playground on Kerksigstrasse is intended for this - and possibly the playground itself. As a replacement, the Rotarians might want to integrate a new public playground into the park - "and also take over operation and maintenance". The creation of a new three-storey extension with a glass / steel look should be an architectural and financial feat. Seen from Humboldtstrasse, it is to be built on the left end of the villa and, in addition to event rooms, will also accommodate escape routes and a new elevator from the basement to the roof as well as a new winter garden. After the renovation, the building should be considered an "attractive destination for Lüdenscheid and its citizens".

In June 2012, the urban planning and environment committee of the city of Lüdenscheid approved the renovation of the "Villa Hueck" with a majority of 12 votes. The tree population, which is unique for the inner city, is to be preserved as far as possible. The building and the site had previously been used for various light installations for the Lüdenscheid light routes .

In August 2012 it was announced that the old “Villa Hueck” would be renamed “Humboldt Villa”. Whether the project will work to reopen the villa exactly 100 years after its construction by the Lüdenscheid industrialist Richard Noelle in 2013 is still open.

Since the beginning of February 2013, the first measure for the new extension was the tower, in which the old elevator of the building had previously been removed.

By the end of June 2013, part of the facade had already been plastered and now looks like 100 years ago when the house was built. For this purpose, experts analyzed old fragments and composed the consistency and color of the plaster mass based on the original. The drywallers have also started work on the interior of the villa. The new extension with a winter garden is also being built quickly. Here too, according to the project manager, the work is on schedule. The penultimate ceiling was poured there at the end of June 2013. The official opening of the “Humboldt Villa” is expected to take place at the end of September 2013.

At the end of October 2013, the new restaurant was also opened in the “Humboldt Villa”. It has 80 seats in the central area and 20 seats in the bistro in front.

At the beginning of 2019, the Humboldt's restaurant opened in the Humboldt Villa (since January 11, 2019) under the direction of Bastian Kassebaum and the Humboldt4C coworking space on February 1, 2019. under the direction of Jens Braeuker.
