Villenkolonie Gern, Architectural heritage monument in Neuhausen-Nymphenburg, Bavaria, Germany

The Villenkolonie Gern features rows of houses with front gardens north of the Nymphenburg Canal between Klugstrasse, Waisenhausstrasse, and Gernerstrasse.

Developer Jakob Heilmann established the residential project in 1892 to address housing needs for middle-class families and artists moving to Munich.

The neighborhood became a concentrated artists' quarter, hosting over 220 painters and sculptors between 1892 and 1930, including notable artist Philipp Röth.

The residential area maintains its original architectural elements and provides convenient access to both natural surroundings and urban facilities.

Streets in the neighborhood received names of famous painters, reflecting its establishment as an artists' quarter after incorporation into Munich in 1899.
