Landhaus Katharinenhof, Heritage monument in Blankenese, Hamburg, Germany.
The Landhaus Katharinenhof stands as a two-story villa with a plaster facade, featuring Doric columns and a triglyph frieze on its garden side.
Merchant Georg Friedrich Baur commissioned the villa's construction between 1829 and 1836, with architects Ole Jørgen Schmidt and Johann Matthias Hansen leading the project.
A sandstone relief depicting the Roman mythology scene of Proserpina's abduction decorates the attic above the rear wall of the altana.
The property underwent multiple transformations, serving as military headquarters, emergency housing, district offices, and now awaits renovation under private ownership.
In 1840, the villa hosted King Christian VIII of Denmark and Norway during their visit to their provinces.
