Villa Jaenisch, Neoclassical villa in Kaiserslautern, Germany

Villa Jaenisch is a listed neoclassical villa at Villenstraße 6/8 in Kaiserslautern, built in 1913 to plans by Eduard Brill together with a separate coach house for staff. The grounds contain an underground passage system that served as a beer cellar and later as an air-raid shelter.

The building was constructed in 1913 by architect Eduard Brill as a private residence. After 1945 it became a command headquarters for American forces and later housed French gendarmes.

The villa's name changed with its owners: built as Villa Jaenisch in 1913, it was called Villa Zschocke from 1919. From 1957 the ground floor housed the "Haus der Begegnung" founded by Prelate Friedrich Gundermann, while Erich-Günther Zschocke, son of Heinrich Zschocke, lived on the first floor with his family. After his divorce, Jean Zschocke stayed there with children Heinrich Christian and Dorothee until 1976.

Villa Jaenisch at Villenstraße 6/8 is a privately owned monument held by the V8 Gesellschaft and is not open to visitors; the grounds and interiors cannot be toured. The ensemble of main house and coach house is seen from the public street. Architect Volker Barth has discussed possible future uses of the building in the Rheinpfalz.

French General Jean-Marie Degoutte occupied the villa from 1919 through the late 1920s, when it was still known as Villa Zschocke. His residence here reflects the French occupation period that shaped the region after World War I.
