Overview

In 1804, the architect Christian Lillie built this house in the classic style. Eye specialist Max Linde bought the property and the 33,000 square meter park which belongs to it in 1897. The new owner decorated the house and garden with valuable artworks and invited important guests. But an economical crisis and inflation forced him to sell the better part of his art collection and the park. He and his family had to move into the attic flat in order to let the ground floor to other people. In 1964, the private property was sold, and after long and expensive renovation you can now see nothing but happy couples in front of the building, as it has the registry office within its walls.
