Fridtjof-Nansen-Haus, Heritage protected villa in Göttingen, Germany.

The Fridtjof-Nansen-Haus spans four levels across 1,850 square meters, featuring marble staircases, decorative columns, and Renaissance-style stained glass windows.

Built between 1899 and 1900 by architects Hans Grisebach and Georg Dinklage for cloth manufacturer Ferdinand Levin, the building later housed Nobel Prize winner James Franck.

The central hall hosts classical concerts, incorporating a fireplace adorned with lion statues that display the Göttingen coat of arms.

Located at Merkelstrasse 4, the building contains a cinema hall, sports facility, and large foyer equipped for various events and gatherings.

The basement kitchen displays traditional Dutch Delft tiles, while the tower provides views across Göttingen and the Leine Valley.
