Lützowstraße
Lützowstraße is a street in the Munich districts of Pasing and Obermenzing, which was built from 1897 onwards. The street was named after the Prussian Generalmajor Ludwig Adolf Wilhelm von Lützow. History The Lützowstraße was first called II. Apfelallee and then Marienstrasse. It is a west–east-oriented street of the Villenkolonie Pasing II. It starts at Pippinger Straße, crosses the Alte Allee and ends at Marschnerstraße. The development began in 1897 with simple villas. On the northern side of the Lützowstraße, between Pippinger Strasse and Alte Allee, there is still a gaping construction display with row and double houses dating from around 1910. The vacant lots, along the remaining road area have been closed in recent years. The outstanding building of Lützowstraße is the Riemerschmid-Villa (Lützowstraße 11).

Villenkolonie Pasing II
The Villenkolonie Pasing II is a single-family home colony in Munich- Pasing. It was built according to the model of a garden town. History The idea of the Villenkolonie Pasing II, west of the Würm river, also came from August Exter, but he failed to execute the plan. In 1897, Exter gave up his construction business and gradually withdrew himself from architectural activity. Contrary to the widely assumed rumors that Exter also built the Villenkolonie Pasing II, the undeveloped property became the property of the ''Terraingesellschaft Neu-Westend AG'' in 1899. The highest bidder was Lazard Speyer-Ellissen, a Frankfurt-based bank led by Georg Speyer. The development of the site was carried out by the ''Neu-Westend AG''. Extern's debts to the city of Pasing were taken over by the royal bank branch. Until 1900, 90 houses were built, but then the construction progress stagnated. In 1929, there were 106 houses under construction for several hundreds of first inquiries. The settlem ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Villa
A villa is a type of house that was originally an ancient Roman upper class country house. Since its origins in the Roman villa, the idea and function of a villa have evolved considerably. After the fall of the Roman Republic, villas became small farming compounds, which were increasingly fortified in Late Antiquity, sometimes transferred to the Church for reuse as a monastery. Then they gradually re-evolved through the Middle Ages into elegant upper-class country homes. In the Early Modern period, any comfortable detached house with a garden near a city or town was likely to be described as a villa; most survivals have now been engulfed by suburbia. In modern parlance, "villa" can refer to various types and sizes of residences, ranging from the suburban semi-detached double villa to, in some countries, especially around the Mediterranean, residences of above average size in the countryside. Roman Roman villas included: * the ''villa urbana'', a suburban or country sea ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
