A monument with history and atmosphere

The villa was built in 1909 on behalf of the Jewish banker Carl Hagen according to plans by Wilhelm Röhre as a summer residence. The building with a two-wing layout, mansard floor, and tower is located at Olympischer Weg 1 and still shapes the area at the airship harbor today. Since 2019, the HMU Health and Medical University has been using the site; in 2012, the IHK Potsdam acquired the villa and had the façade renovated.
