Gartenstadt Hohenhagen, Garden city and group of structures in Eppenhausen, Germany.

Located southeast of the Hagen motorway junction, Gartenstadt Hohenhagen encompasses residential buildings with generous open spaces and forested areas.

Karl Ernst Osthaus founded this settlement in 1909 as a response to rapid industrialization, incorporating designs from Peter Behrens and Henry van de Velde.

The settlement functions as both a villa colony and an architectural exhibition, demonstrating the design principles of early twentieth-century urban planning.

Visitors can explore the architectural heritage through designated walking paths that connect various structures within the Gartenstadt Hohenhagen complex.

The northern Stirnband street features uniform houses by Jan Ludovicus Mathieu Lauweriks, while Behrens created three distinct residences on Haßleyer Straße.

Location: Hagen
