The Seebachsche house was a villa at the Bürgerwiese 16 in Dresden , which in 1839 by Hermann Nicolai for Coburg forester Eduard von Seebach was built and canceled 1899th

It should "not go unmentioned that the house of Mr. Seebach (...) appears as an imitation of Venetian houses" with a "stylization freely based on Venetian models of the early Renaissance".

The first floor was clad with rustication. The two upper floors had a front length of five window axes. The three middle windows on the two upper floors (similar to the Albert Theater ) were combined into triplet windows. On the first floor there was a balcony with a wrought iron grille. The corners of the house were summarized by a diamond corner cuboid .

This house was the subject of a dispute as to whether Semper or Nicolai introduced the Neo-Renaissance in its Italian version in Dresden.
