Villa Hoffbauer, Residential villa near Stadtkanal in Potsdam, Germany.

The Villa Hoffbauer stands along the eastern canal wall at Planitz, featuring architectural elements from the late 19th century German residential design period.

Industrial pioneers Hermann and Clara Hoffbauer acquired the property in 1870, transforming the former Havelhaus into a central meeting point for Potsdam society.

The villa regularly welcomed notable German figures, including writer Theodor Fontane and surgeon Ernst von Bergmann, for intellectual and social gatherings.

Located at coordinates 52.3932 latitude and 13.05125 longitude, the villa site connects to Hoffbauerstrasse, named after the original owners.

The building sustained significant damage during the April 14, 1945 air raid on Potsdam, leading to current discussions about restoration and future development.
