Villa Orlando, Heritage villa in Loschwitz district, Dresden, Germany.

The sandstone villa at Schillerstraße 4 combines Gothic architecture with Byzantine and Arab influences, featuring a northwestern tower with castellated design points.

Built between 1848 and 1853 by architect Hugo Erhard for Count Orlando, the villa incorporated parts of previous residential buildings into its structure.

The property transformed from a noble residence to an internat for Greek children after World War II and later housed the district Stasi administration.

The interior spaces of Villa Orlando are now divided into multiple studio apartments, adapting the historical structure to modern residential needs.

The rooms inside the villa follow a terraced arrangement to accommodate the natural slope of the terrain where the building stands.
