Villa Cahn, Gothic Revival villa in Plittersdorf, Bad Godesberg, Germany.

The Villa Cahn stands above the Rhine River on Am Büchel street, featuring stone gates and an iron fence surrounding its extensive grounds.

Jewish banker Albert Cahn commissioned architect Edwin Oppler to construct this Gothic Revival residence between 1868 and 1870, establishing it as his family estate.

The original interior contained Dutch paintings, German artworks, ceramics, weapons, and stained glass before the Jewish owners fled during the Nazi period.

The villa underwent extensive renovations after 1997, receiving new windows, restored ceiling paintings, updated heating systems, and modern amenities including a wellness area.

Following the owner's wishes, Albert Cahn's cremated remains were interred within the villa's park, an uncommon practice for the time period.
