Fritz-Heckert-Heim, Cultural heritage monument in Gernrode, Quedlinburg, Germany.
The structure stands on Kuhkopf hill, north of the Harz Mountains, featuring a curved entrance area with multiple terraces extending from the main building.
Between 1952 and 1954, the Fritz-Heckert-Heim emerged as the first newly constructed holiday home in East Germany, following designs by the Maedecke engineering office.
The architectural design draws inspiration from the 1936 Berlin Olympic Village, reflecting the Classical Modernism style prevalent during its construction period.
The building remains vacant since 1990 and requires extensive renovation, with plans announced in 2021 to transform it into holiday apartments and sports facilities.
In 1959, the Fritz-Heckert-Heim received recognition through its depiction on an official East German postage stamp, marking its national significance.
