Villa Plappert

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The villa Parrots was an upper-class residential building on Charles Street 137 in Heilbronn , which in 1907 by Hugo Eberhardt was built in the style of an English country house architecture.

history

The architect Hugo Eberhardt , then based in Frankfurt am Main, built the Landhaus Plappert in 1907 for the merchant Karl Wilhelm Plappert (* January 1, 1876; † in November 1933) at Karlstrasse 137. In 1909, the Landhaus Blappert ( the name wrongly written with 'B') in the supplement “Heimatliche Bauweise” in the supra-regional “Zentralblatt des Hessischen Gewerbeverein Darmstadt” in 1909 and honored.

The Villa Berberich , which Eberhardt had built in 1905/6 for the paper wholesaler Karl Berberich, was located directly next to the Landhaus Plappert on the property 'Karlstrasse 141' to the east . Eberhardt also built the Villa Pielenz in Heilbronn in 1905. All three buildings are based on the English country house architecture and show the influence of the Berlin architect Hermann Muthesius .

In 1930, the then owner Fritz Eppinger had the building extensively rebuilt by the Heilbronn architect Fritz Schneider. The country house was destroyed in the Second World War. In 1946 Fritz Eppinger commissioned the government master builder Erik Beutinger to rebuild his house. Stylistically, however, this building had little in common with the previous building by Hugo Eberhardt. The Beutinger building was then demolished in 1973.

description

The country house built by Hugo Eberhardt was built on a high base and had a high mansard roof . A staircase led to a viewing terrace with the main entrance. This entrance was flanked on both sides by porches with windows. There were other entrances on both sides of the house.

The house is on slightly sloping terrain, which allows the creation of a charming architectural garden. The ground floor contains the living rooms and the kitchen, the upper floor the bedrooms, a children's room and the bathroom. On both floors, the rooms are grouped around a small hallway, which can be made very comfortable by adding small ancillary rooms. The extremely practical merging of dining room, sideboard, terrace and kitchen on the ground floor is remarkable. The house is plastered with sparing use of Neckar sandstone and the roof is covered with red beaver tails . The total cost is 30,000 marks. "
