Villa Metzler, Classical villa at Schaumainkai, Frankfurt, Germany
The three-story building features five window axes on each floor and a pyramid roof with mansards, following French architectural style patterns.
The villa was constructed in 1804 for pharmacist Peter Salzwedel as a summer residence before banker Georg Friedrich Metzler acquired it in 1851.
Nine period rooms in the villa present living culture spanning two centuries, reflecting changing tastes and social patterns throughout German history.
The Villa Metzler functions as part of the Museum of Applied Arts Frankfurt, offering visitors insights into historical interior designs and decorative arts.
Richard Meier used the square foundation of Villa Metzler as a module for designing the modern museum extension completed in 1987.
