Uthemann Villa in Katowice, Director's residence in Giszowiec district, Katowice, Poland.

The villa features ornate architectural details and stands prominently at Pszczyńska 10, displaying the status of mining executives in industrial Silesia.

Constructed between 1907 and 1910 by architects Zillmanns, the residence served as home to Anton Uthemann, director of the George von Giesches Erben company.

The building represents the social hierarchy of early 20th century industrial communities, where mine directors resided in large villas near workers' settlements.

The villa maintains its original exterior structure and remains under private ownership, located at coordinates 50.2186 latitude and 19.0597 longitude.

During World War II, the villa became the residence of gauleiter Fritz Bracht, who ended his life there before Soviet forces entered Katowice.
