Villa Baare, Renaissance villa in Höntrop, Bochum, Germany.

The Villa Baare features Italian Renaissance architectural elements with a prominent tower addition and extensive gardens surrounding the main building.

The Bochumer Verein für Gußstahlfabrikation constructed this residence in 1888 for their director Louis Baare near the Maria Anna Steinbank mine.

The villa grounds host the annual Höntroper Töpfermarkt ceramics market, where 50 selected artists present their handmade creations each September.

The historical building currently operates as a Waldorf kindergarten, managed by a local association that maintains the property and its educational functions.

Fritz Baare, the son of the original owner, expanded the villa in 1904 by adding a tower and additional structures to enhance its architectural presence.
