Königin-Luise-Haus

Königin-Luise-Haus is a three-story villa in Leipzig's Stötteritz district with verandas and interconnected halls across its levels. The structure displays early 20th-century residential design with flowing room layouts and generous floor spaces.

Two Dresden architects, William Lossow and Max Hans Kühne, designed this building, which opened in September 1913 near the Battle of Nations Monument. After the war, the house shifted from a social gathering place to a medical facility serving the surrounding neighborhood.

The building served as a gathering place for members of a women's temperance movement, named after a Prussian queen. Today its presence still reflects the social values that shaped early 20th-century German society.

The building is located at Prager Strasse 191 and is now divided into apartments and a therapy practice, so visits are limited to the exterior. The area is accessible by public transportation and lies near Südfriedhof cemetery.

The building originally functioned as an alcohol-free restaurant, an unusual establishment reflecting the progressive social reforms of that era. This mission emerged from a broader German movement promoting sobriety in urban communities.
