Villa Cuno, the Hohenhof and the artists' colony Hohenhagen

The garden city of Hohenhagen was founded in 1909 by the Hagen patron Karl Ernst Osthaus.

Osthaus wanted to set a counterpoint to the industrialization of the landscape with the Garden City. The garden city of Hohenhagen was planned as an artists' colony. To realize his idea, Osthaus committed well-known artists and architects. Peter Behrens, Henry van de Velde and the Dutch architect Jan Ludovicus Mathieu Lauwerik played a key role in the planning of the garden city.

The plans were initially based on the construction of 16 villas. The group of houses on the northern headband was unified by the artist architect J.L.M. Lauwerik built; Behrens designed and built three houses on Haßleyer Straße.

Outstanding building of the garden city is designed by the Belgian Henry van de Velde Hohenhof, moved into the Osthaus 1908 itself.

Since Karl Ernst Osthaus died in 1921, the Gesamtkunstwerk Hohenhagen could not be completed.

This is a cool ensemble of buildings. You certainly don't have to visit it every week, but you can go there once in a while.
