🚶 Amalienau: the villas of Kutuzova Street

ул. Кутузова, Каштановая аллея

An early 20th-century garden suburb: Jugendstil villas, tiled roofs, front gardens and tree-lined streets with no right angles.

Amalienau was built in the early 20th century on the “garden city” concept — a blend of country and town.
The streets here deliberately don’t cross at right angles: each was conceived as an avenue of trees.
The houses were built in Jugendstil, and the rules allowed no more than two storeys plus an attic.
The most luxurious villas are on Kutuzova Street; each was built to its own design.
The district suffered little in the war; plain post-war houses stand next to the elegant villas.
