Villa Braunbehrens, Historic villa in Kohlhof, Heidelberg, Germany
The Villa Braunbehrens stands on the Königstuhl ridge, three kilometers southeast of Heidelberg's city center, featuring architectural elements of Art Nouveau style.
Between 1912 and 1914, Anna Maria von Braunbehrens commissioned the construction of this villa, designed by a student of renowned architect Henry van de Velde.
From 1945 to 1950, composer Wolfgang Fortner established a musical center at the villa, where young musicians explored contemporary composition techniques.
The City of Heidelberg currently manages the property, which is undergoing transformation into an international art and science residence with public access.
During the post-war period, the villa's location near a ski jump and rehabilitation clinic made it a central point for winter sports and recreational activities.
