Heymanska villan, Residential palace in Gothenburg, Sweden.
Heymanska villan stands at the intersection of Vasagatan and Viktoriagatan, featuring columns, friezes, urns, and figures executed in light plaster across its two stories.
Built between 1874 and 1876 for merchant Gabriel Heyman, this structure was one of the first stone houses constructed during Gothenburg's expansion beyond the moat.
The interior displays the Baldersbränna frieze, created in Rome in 1877 by sculptor Alexander Carlsson, depicting Norse mythology characters and Balder's funeral journey.
The building serves as a residential complex under the ownership of Axson Förvaltning KB, following previous tenants including Emil Nilsson and the Red Cross.
Two freestanding columns with sculptures frame the main entrance on Vasagatan, demonstrating architect Adrian Peterson's first major work in Gothenburg.
