Stammhaus Underberg

The Stammhaus Underberg is a protected mansion in Rheinberg featuring classical stucco work in the entrance area, a prominent staircase, and a first-floor hall decorated with Rococo ornaments. The multi-story villa displays carefully planned interior design with coordinated decorative elements throughout.

The mansion was built from 1869 to 1874 as a residence for the Underberg family and replaced their earlier structures at the fish market. The villa emerged during a period of major economic and social changes in the Rhine region.

The building displays Italian and French Renaissance style elements that were widespread in 19th-century Germany. This blend reflects how international influences shaped architecture during that era.

The monument is located on Underbergstrasse and is visible from outside, though access to the interior may vary depending on events and guided tours. Plan your visit in advance to check availability.

The villa combines several style periods under one roof, allowing visitors to trace the evolution of decorative arts from classicism to Rococo in a single location. This makes it a tangible example of the aesthetic developments of its building era.
