Villa Hahn, Heritage villa in Helbersdorf, Chemnitz, Germany

Villa Hahn is a villa built in 1923 by architect Eugen Weber, set in a park in Chemnitz-Helbersdorf. Its symmetrical facade combines the plainer style emerging at the time with Neoclassical elements; restored corner pilasters and a semicircular bay with balcony face the park. Inside, the foyer and ground-floor rooms retain the original fireplace and several stoves.

Built in 1923 to plans by architect Eugen Weber for circular knitting machine manufacturer Erich Barth, the villa was later sold to the Jewish Frank family, who emigrated to the USA after 1933. From 1934 to 1945 it belonged to Auto Union AG and housed the Hahn family. It was severely damaged in the air raid of 5/6 March 1945, and the Hahns fled on 7 May 1945.

The villa is named after Carl Horst Hahn, honorary citizen of Chemnitz and long-time chairman of Volkswagen AG, on 2 April 2008. On 24 June 2014 the firm based there unveiled a bust honouring his life's work, and on 8 October 2014 Hahn visited his former parental home for a Saxon television interview.

The building is located in the Helbersdorf district of Chemnitz and is protected as a heritage monument. Access may be limited as it is private property.

The automobile link belongs to the Hahn family, not the first owner: from 1934 to 1945 the villa was owned by Auto Union AG and served as the home of Carl Hahn senior, who helped turn the Zschopauer Motorenwerke into what was for a time the world's largest motorcycle factory. His son Carl Horst Hahn, later Volkswagen chairman and an honorary citizen of Chemnitz, gave the building its name in 2008.
