Villa Borgnis, Cultural heritage monument in Königstein im Taunus, Germany.

The Villa Borgnis stands beneath Burg Königstein castle, featuring classical architectural elements and a veranda added during the 19th-century expansions.

Built in the early 19th century as Gasthaus am Grünen Baum, the property was purchased by banker Matthias Franz Borgnis in 1838 and transformed into a villa.

The building served as the founding location of the Junge Union Deutschlands in 1947 and functioned as the city library from 1976 to 1997.

Following renovations completed in 1999, the villa now houses a restaurant, wine tavern, and serves as the official registry office for Königstein.

The villa opened as a public spa house in August 1927, marking the realization of a 76-year community effort to establish a Kurhaus in Königstein.
