Villa Knagge, Heritage building in Wildeshausen, Germany.

The Villa Knagge features a wooden portico entrance, Art Nouveau frieze decorations, and a gable mosaic on Ahlhornerstrasse 10.

Built in 1852 for merchant Johannes Knagge after his return from Java, the villa underwent significant renovations in 1906 including heating installations.

The dining room contains a ceiling painting, while the property displays two Villeroy & Boch terracotta statues representing Art and Science.

The historical structure now belongs to the Catholic Church of Wildeshausen and operates through an ecclesiastical foundation.

The gable triangle contains a Munich-made glass mosaic depicting praying angels around a Sacred Heart, created by mosaic artist Simon Theodor Rauecker.
