Villa Bouchina, Municipal monument at Dominee van Dijkweg 13, Doetinchem, Netherlands.

Villa Bouchina stands as a two-story white building with architectural elements from the early 1900s near the center of Doetinchem.

From February to April 1943, the villa housed eight Jewish individuals with privileged status, including illustrator Jo Spier, before their deportation to Theresienstadt.

The building served as a parsonage for the Christian Reformed Church until the construction of a new church complex on Holter Weg.

Currently functioning as a private residence, the villa remains closed to visitors while maintaining its status as a protected municipal structure.

Secretary-General Frederiks managed this temporary Jewish residence alongside similar facilities at Castle De Schaffelaar and De Biezen in nearby Barneveld.
