Villa Maffei, Architectural heritage monument in Feldafing, Germany.

Villa Maffei is a two-wing building with asymmetrical proportions located at Seestraße 4 in Feldafing. The structure features a rounded tower, corner bay windows, and extended balconies that open toward the lakeside landscape.

Emanuel von Seidl designed the villa, built in 1901 for Reichsrat Hugo von Maffei. From 1952 to 1972 it housed the "Haus Maffei" children's home. In 2021, a BR documentary reported abuse of former residents in the cellar; the Paritätischer Wohlfahrtsverband, the former operator, commissioned an independent study in November 2021, whose preliminary report appeared in January 2022.

From 1952 to 1972 the villa housed the children's home "Haus Maffei", run by the Paritätischer Wohlfahrtsverband Bayern. In August 2021 Bayerischer Rundfunk broadcast the documentary "Report München extra: Das Netzwerk der Täter", in which former home children described abuse in the villa's cellar and being passed on to priests, including to Kloster Ettal. The association commissioned an independent study in November 2021; its preliminary report appeared in January 2022.

The villa stands at Seestraße 4, surrounded by a 0.96-hectare park laid out in late-Romantic garden style, with an iron gate and fence built at the same time as the house. The gardener's house, greenhouse and garage also date from the original ensemble. The grounds belong to a protected monument, so entry is not open to the public.

From 1952 to 1972 the villa housed the children's home "Haus Maffei". In August 2021 a BR documentary reported abuse suffered there in the 1960s; former residents described assaults in the cellar and being passed to priests, including at Kloster Ettal. The Paritätischer Wohlfahrtsverband Bayern, the former operator, only began reappraising the cases after a private research group contacted it in 2020, commissioning an independent study in November 2021.
