Villa Wewersbusch, Private boarding school in Velbert, Germany.
Villa Wewersbusch is a boarding school housed in a heritage-protected manor house north of the Ruhr region. The building combines residential and classroom spaces, with students and staff working and living in the same rooms daily.
The manor house dates from an era when such buildings served as homes for wealthy families and shaped regional architecture. It was later converted into a school and received heritage protection to preserve its original structural elements.
The school uses the heritage villa as a learning space where students move between historic rooms and contemporary classes. The building shapes daily routines and connects architectural tradition with modern education.
Visitors can ask at reception about open tours and explore the building from outside and in freely accessible areas. For deeper insights into school operations and boarding life, information days are scheduled and advertised on the website.
The building weaves learning and residential spaces together in a continuous concept, so school and daily life are spatially intertwined. This design encourages constant exchange between classroom learning and community life within a historic setting.
