Villa Post, Historical villa in Wehringhausen, Germany.

The Villa Post stands as a cubic two-story brick building with freestone details and a tiled hip roof near the Ennepe River.

Built in 1892 for merchant Wilhelm Karl Johann Diederich Post, the villa transformed into a museum in 1932, displaying Christian Rohlfs paintings.

During the National Socialist period, the museum underwent changes, leading to its renaming as Haus der Kunst and the removal of 400 modern artworks.

The building serves as the headquarters of Volkshochschule Hagen since 1998, offering educational seminars and courses to local residents.

The central facade originally featured a Renaissance gable, positioning the villa next to the Post family water-powered hammer works.
