history

Villa for Baroness Zehmen: Design by the Ziller brothers, 1873, south side

Villa Tanger: Redesign by Paul Ziller, 1911, south side

In 1873 the builders, the Ziller brothers, built this villa on the Schleinitz vineyard for the Baroness von Zehmen . In 1911, the architect Paul Ziller , the youngest brother of the two Ziller brothers, added the terrace with the portico and the closed veranda on the south side and redesigned the villa's style. From 1911 to 1927 at the latest, the property was owned by the royal Saxon commercial councilor Adolf Renschhausen, who was successful in Spanish Morocco and Tangier .

In September 1927 it was sold to the Dresden City Council for 65,000 Reichsmarks . According to the address book, there was a municipal nursing home there from 1931 at the latest, referred to as a city children's home in 1944. After 1949/1950 the property became a home for the Greek Markos children who had moved to Radebeul . From January 1963 a kindergarten for around 90 German children was set up.

Today the integrative day care center “Thomas Müntzer” of the city of Radebeul is housed there. From 2006, with the help of the economic stimulus packages, fire protection and energy-related renovations were carried out as well as the installation of the mandatory second staircase (escape staircase) on the back of the building (south side), which were presented to the public on the 2011 Heritage Day .
