| 1909 | Garden City Hellerau Dresden Address: Markt, 01109 Hellerau |
Shortly after the creation of the first garden city in England, the first German estate also celebrated its founding in Dresden over 100 years ago. The Hellerau estate can be traced back to the initiative of furniture manufacturer Karl Schmidt, whose name is still associated with the Deutsche Werkstätten Hellerau today. All in all, the garden city of the architect Richard Riemerschmid is a modern piece of urban history despite its romanticizing approach. In addition to Riemerschmid, Heinrich Tessenow, Hermann Muthesius and Kurt Frick, as well as Theodor Fischer, were among the renowned architects who designed entire streets or at least rows of houses in Hellerau. During the time of its construction, Hellerau, like only the garden city of Margarethenhöhe in Essen, was exempt from all building regulations by government decree. https://sdg21.eu/db/gartenstadt-hellerau-in-dresden |
