Villa ensemble Werderstrasse 125 to 141
The villa ensemble Werderstrasse 125 to 141 in Schwerin , Altstadt district , on the Werderstrasse promenade , is a monument in Schwerin .
history
The two- and three-storey plastered neoclassical row villas from 1862 to 1867 in the neo-renaissance style were built by investors at the instigation and with start-up funding from Grand Duke Friedrich Franz II , as a worthy aesthetic counterpart to the castle and an appealing connection between castle and stables . The Annastraße was therefore rebuilt so that the carriages from the stables could get to the castle more quickly. The planners were the master mason Ferdinand Schultz (125–133, 141) and the architect Hermann Willebrand (135–139). Court carpenter Christian Lemcke was involved in the realization of the buildings.
The eaves height was based on the stables of 1842 according to building regulations. Villas 125 to 139 have a high basement with two upper floors. No. 141 is the only detached villa in the series.
Preferred residents were wealthy and noble families employed at the court. Later large inner courtyards were built for carriage and horse stables as well as for lavish winter gardens.
In 1858, the Grand Duke ordered the construction of the southern part of Werderstrasse, still known as Annenstrasse , to be completed by 1864 . In 1945 Annastraße became part of Werderstraße.
