Villa Schütte

Villa Schütte stands in Bremen’s Horn-Lehe district as a two-storey building with a hipped roof. Architects Friedrich Wellermann and Paul Frölich designed the villa. Construction took place between 1914 and 1915 for merchant Albrecht Franz Schütte, son of Franz Ernst Schütte. Bremen has protected the villa as a heritage monument since 1998. Its design reflects early twentieth-century architecture, while later work added a rear extension and a two-storey building behind the property. The new rear building also has two storeys. Albrecht Franz Schütte also served as president of the Bürgerparkverein from 1934 to 1966. The villa houses offices for German Lashing Robert Böck GmbH. A second Villa Schütte stands in Bremen-Schwachhausen, built for Gustav Albrecht Schütte, a nephew of Franz Ernst Schütte. Rudolf Alexander Schröder and Rudolph Leymann designed that villa. The Horn-Lehe villa combines the Schütte family commission with Bremen’s protected architectural heritage. The property includes the villa, a rear extension, and a separate two-storey building.
