Villa Salve Hospes, Neoclassical villa in Innenstadt, Braunschweig, Germany.

The two-story Villa Salve Hospes features Ionic columns, a double-flight staircase, and auxiliary buildings with stucco decorations throughout its 400 square meters.

Built between 1805 and 1808 by architect Peter Joseph Krahe for merchant Dietrich Wilhelm Krause, the villa became municipal property in 1927.

Since 1946, the Villa Salve Hospes has operated as the main exhibition venue for Kunstverein Braunschweig, presenting international contemporary art exhibitions.

The exhibition space spans two floors and includes the adjacent Remise building, which provides additional areas for contemporary art installations.

Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen visited the villa in 1831 and wrote about its gardens filled with fruit trees and flowers.
