Villa Looß am Fennpfuhl

Villa Looß is a protected mansion in Lichtenberg featuring red brick walls, a hip roof, and Art Nouveau design elements from the late 19th century. The building contains multiple living spaces, a vaulted basement, and today functions as an event venue.

The mansion was built in 1896 for Gustav Adolph Schultz, a prominent imperial court gardener, and was used as Soviet military storage after World War II. The changes in ownership and use shaped how the structure evolved over time.

The mansion was built as a residence for a prominent gardener and shows how skilled professionals lived in the late 19th century. The three distinctly designed salons inside reflect the different purposes the rooms served for gatherings and celebrations.

The building sits near Fennpfuhl pond and operates as an event space for groups of 12 to 60 people with seating and catering. Visitors should check availability and current conditions beforehand since it functions as a private venue.

The mansion is the oldest remaining building in the Fennpfuhl neighborhood and stands as nearly 130 years of local construction history. It gained protected status only in 2013, showing how communities sometimes recognize their architectural treasures quite late.
