Villa Wagner (St. Ingbert)
The Villa Wagner is a listed building in Neue Bahnhofstrasse 33 in St. Ingbert .
history
The glass manufacturer Adolf Wagner had a villa built in the style of historicism in a park near the train station in 1889/90 . In the 19th century, the founder of the building materials company Weigand lived in the building. In 1931 the villa was fundamentally rebuilt. In 1955 the city of St. Ingbert acquired the building with the property and opened a youth hostel there two years later . The park was opened to the public and redesigned in 1962. In 1998 the hostel was closed and the property was sold to the SAP company. In 1999/2000 they had the building rebuilt and the remise torn down. Since then, the building has been part of the SAP St. Ingbert site.
architecture
The house with a flat mansard roof is faced with yellow clinker bricks. Cornices, soffits and the portal are made of red clinker or sandstone. The portal side in the south and the opposite north side each have a prominent central projection . The risalit on the portal side is equipped with an elaborate tail gable . The portal was protected with a wrought iron canopy. While the east side does not have a central protrusion that protrudes quite as far, on the west side, instead of a central protrusion, a square corner tower with a pointed helmet is embedded in the facade. The windows have all-round sill cornices with wide consoles on the ground floor and a cornice that closes off the windows above. The ground floor rises above a rusticated sloping base with square windows. The two-storey structure ends with a high eaves cornice.
The sandstone portal is flanked by columns of Tuscan order with high pedestals and finished with an architrave and a triangular gable. The roofs of the windows are lavishly decorated with semicircular arches. There are masks and shell ornaments in the arches. The stairwell window above the portal is equipped with an arched field spanning both windows. The narrow, high windows in the central projection on the north side are decorated with large figures and have wide arched fields with decorations.
