Villa Irmgard, Museum in Heringsdorf, Germany
Villa Irmgard is a two-story residential house in Heringsdorf featuring neoclassical lines combined with Art Nouveau details on its exterior. Inside are multiple rooms with original furnishings and a garden surrounding the building.
The house was built in 1906 as a guest residence for visitors seeking rest by the coast. In 1922 the Russian writer Maxim Gorky stayed there during a period focused on improving his health.
The house displays how wealthy families lived on the coast during its early years, with rooms arranged to show daily routines and social customs. Original furnishings throughout the rooms give visitors a sense of how people inhabited and used these spaces.
The building sits on Maxim-Gorki-Straße in central Heringsdorf and is easy to reach on foot. Visitors find exhibits from different periods displayed throughout the rooms.
The ground floor study was deliberately kept in the state Gorky left it, including his large desk where he worked. Visitors can see entries in a guest register from 1922 written by other guests who visited during his stay.
