Villa Popken

Highlight • Historical Site

Located directly on the Bundestrasse, the single-storey brick building with its hipped mansard roof, built in 1915 by Focke Memken Immega, represents one of a whole series of architectural monuments in Hesel.
(de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_Baudenkmale_in_Hesel)
With its generously designed windows and the veranda extension from 1920, Villa Popken is a real feast for the eyes. Directly opposite, on the other side of the main road, is the "Alte Posthalterei", which is also beautiful to look at. However, you have to think away from the integrated chip shop. ;-)
(komoot.de/highlight/1487223)
Today the Villa Popken is a tourist information and meeting place. On the first floor, those interested can visit an archaeological exhibition with objects from the Bronze Age to the Middle Ages. The exhibition places a special focus on the history of the Barthe Monastery, which was formerly located in the Hesel Forest.
