The first villa in Gera with the classic characteristics of villa architecture was built in 1873 by the architect Ferdinand Luthmer for the master builder Voß and set the standard for all subsequent villas built by the wealthy bourgeoisie.

The architectural concept of the large, two-story hall with a surrounding gallery was subsequently passed down several times in Gera.
