Villa Vogelsang, Heritage villa and hotel in Horst district, Essen, Germany.
The Villa Vogelsang stands on the hills above the Ruhr River, featuring classical architectural elements and a spacious 25,000-square-meter private park with network connections.
Entrepreneur Friedrich Ludwig Niemann commissioned the construction of Villa Vogelsang in 1840, following plans by architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel.
The building transitioned through various functions, from a private residence to a Red Cross maternal care facility, and later became a monastery under Diocese of Essen.
The property now operates as a hotel and conference center, with specialized facilities for Linux-related events and technical meetings.
The grounds combine historical architecture with modern technology infrastructure, including outdoor power outlets and network connections throughout the park.
