Villa Levi, Neoclassical villa in northern Stuttgart, Germany.

Villa Levi is a neoclassical residence in northern Stuttgart distinguished by intricate facades, expansive windows, and refined architectural details. The structure sits in a residential neighborhood and displays typical characteristics of upscale residential design from the early 20th century.

The house was built in 1921 as a private residence for Max Levi, co-owner of the Salamander shoe factory. After World War II, it became an educational institution, housing Stuttgart Library School from 1946 until 2000.

From 1946 to 2000 the villa housed Stuttgart's library school, renamed several times: Süddeutsche Büchereischule in 1947, Süddeutsches Bibliothekar-Lehrinstitut in 1965, Fachhochschule für Bibliothekswesen in 1971 and Hochschule für Bibliotheks- und Informationswesen in 1995. The building's name still recalls its builder and first owner, Max Levi of Salamander.

The villa stands at Feuerbacher Heide 38–42 on the Killesberg in Stuttgart's north, held by the city of Stuttgart and listed as a monument. It is a private building, so the neoclassical facade is seen from the street; the interior is not open to visitors.

After the library school left in 2000, the city-owned listed villa stood empty for years while sale negotiations dragged on. In 2001 the Rinol AG bought it first; only after that firm's bankruptcy did the son of Ferdinand Piëch, active in real estate, acquire the property, which is to house a training centre.
