Villa Cassalette, Renaissance style residential building in Aachen, Germany.

The three-story palazzo features a richly ornamented facade with Ionic double columns on the first floor and Corinthian columns on the second floor.

Built between 1884 and 1888 by architect Eduard Linse for manufacturer Eduard Cassalette, the villa exemplifies the architectural preferences of 19th-century upper class.

The interior spaces contain preserved stucco cassette ceilings and murals depicting mythological scenes throughout the foyer and staircase areas.

The building now houses the Suermondt Ludwig Museum, which underwent major renovations between 1992 and 1994 to include modern exhibition spaces.

The library contains original painted images of plants, animals, and open skies that reflect the decorative tastes of the initial residents.
