In November 1893, the widow of the Bremen merchant and shipowner Diedrich Heinrich Wätjen assumed the construction costs for a new warden's house in this secluded area of the Bürgerpark. The Wätjen House was designed in the country house style of the time, with red brickwork, a roof adorned with high bay windows, and half-timbering integrated into white-plastered sections of the walls.
