The Villa Stübelallee 21 (also: Villa Müller , named after the owners) was a villa in Dresden district Johannstadt at the Stübelallee .

History and description of the building

After leaving the architectural office Lossow & Viehweger, the architect Heino Otto received several orders for the construction of villas in Dresden, as well as the suburbs that were not yet incorporated, due to his excessive work in the neo-baroque style . One of the first clients after his departure - the Central Theater with the excessive neo-baroque facade designed by Heino Otto has just opened - was still in 1899 the businessman Martin Alfred Müller for a representative house for himself and his family. The client chose the largely undeveloped north side of Stübelallee as the location.

The building, which is based on the Dresden building tradition, with a main axis and two side axes to Stübelallee, was given a single-storey winter garden with a roof terrace on the east floor. Architecturally, however, Otto took on the neo-baroque style of Dresden building forms (gable, vase attachments), on the other hand, both the window design and the plaster painting are to be assigned to the emerging Art Nouveau . The floor plan of the villa can also be assigned to Art Nouveau, the representative axes of the classic Dresden tradition have been completely dissolved inside.

Others

The villa was destroyed in the air raids on Dresden in 1945, and the property was cleared during the clearing of large areas in the early 1950s. The actual building is now a green area, which is lined with 16-storey prefabricated buildings to the east and west.

In addition to this villa, Heino Otto designed six other villas for the north side of Stübelallee. They were also all destroyed in 1945.
