    Hiking

    Between 1907 and 1909, the Munich architect Emanuel von Seidl built a villa for the textile entrepreneur Commercial Councillor Carl Benker, into which he structurally integrated the family's existing home. The high mansard roof is particularly striking. Von Seidl, who was friends with Benker and connected through a shared house music ensemble, also designed the interior with social rooms, music room, salon, hunting room and library.
