Villa colony on the Höhenberg
The villa colony on Höhenberg in Feldafing , a municipality in the Upper Bavarian district of Starnberg , was built before the First World War .
history
In 1898, Heilmann'sche Immobilien-Gesellschaft from Munich acquired the entire part of the royal palace park west of Seestrasse to Tutzing in order to establish a villa colony on the site . Plots of land were built on a hillside on three levels, which were made accessible via Höhenbergstraße, Pschorrstraße and Thurn- und Taxis-Straße. The developed building plots were offered for sale at the same time as the planning and construction of villas. The main parts of the development were completed at the beginning of the First World War.
The following villas , which are usually named after their first owners, are on the list of monuments.
- Höhenbergstraße: Villa Bernheimer (No. 11/13), Villa Bergmann (No. 15), Villa Engelhorn (No. 20), Villa Waldberta (No. 25/31), Villa Carl (No. 35), Villa Pfister (No. . 40)
- Pschorrstraße: Villa Prange (No. 9, built in 1903/04 by G. Baierle for the dentist Dr. Christensen).
- Thurn- und Taxis-Straße: Villa Pschorr (No. 11), Villa Feinhals (No. 13)
The southern part of the villa colony, on the other side of the Eichgraben, is now the site of the Bundeswehr Command Support School .
Reichsschule Feldafing
The villas were bought by the NSDAP from 1937 and some were named after leading National Socialists . The Reichsschule Feldafing was established in the houses .
From 1938 to 1942, eight long block-like accommodation houses were built in the mountain hunter style for the school on the southern part of the villa colony . Prisoners from the Dachau concentration camp were also used for the construction.
DP camp Feldafing
From the end of April 1945, the first purely Jewish transit camp for displaced persons , mostly deported from Eastern Europe and liberated from concentration camps, was set up on the premises of the Reichsschule , which existed until May 31, 1951. After the camp was closed, the Bundeswehr took over the site.
