Designed by Henry van de Velde, Villa Esche is a museum and events venue located in the town of Chemnitz. Through the rest of the 20th century, this villa was passed down generations and has served as Seat of the Soviet Military Command, an educational institute, and many more. Regarded by many as the masterpiece of European architecture, this villa was renovated in the beginning on the 21st century and is today a prime example of the blend of business, art and culture in Chemnitz. Housing a meeting place, an event location, Henry van de Velde Museum, concert podium, and a restaurant, Villa Esche is used for many conferences, seminars, concerts, readings, discussions, banquets, receptions, presentations, weddings, Jugendweihen and other events. With rooms ranging between 55 to 252 square meters, extensive gardens and an in-house restaurant, this venue is quite a hit among the locals.
