Hartmanova vila Villa
Hartmanova vila in Ústí nad Orlicí is a Art Nouveau family residence from 1909. It is remarkable with its distinctive tower and preserved original elements of the interior. The building served as the home of the entrepreneur Josef Hartmann and is today protected by a monument.
The residence was established for Josef Hartmann, who traded cars and spare parts. Construction took place at the time of the expansion of industry and automobility in the early 20th century. At the time, the Art Nouveau dominated the architecture with an emphasis on decorative and modern urban housing. The project was developed by Prague architect Matěj Blecha and realized by Jan Hernych.
It is a Art Nouveau building, dominated by a distinctive tower in the facade. The interior kept the original details, especially the staircase hall. The facade of the tower was repaired in 2012 and the roof coat was completely replaced.
Since its inception, the villa was owned by Josef Hartmann. Under communism, its use changed and other families were obliged to move into the building. After 1989, the property returned to the Hartmann family.
A major milestone in the newer history was 20 October 1999, when the villa was declared a monument protected. The construction is specifically linked to the beginnings of the automotive trade in the region thanks to the profession of the original owner.
Currently Hartmanova vila is maintained in good condition thanks to repairs. As a representative example of Art Nouveau architecture in Ústí nad Orlicí, it represents a valuable document of then social and industrial development.
The seat is an important testament to the architecture of the early 20th century and an example of the then entrepreneurial spirit. The visit offers insight into the aesthetics of Art Nouveau and the history of local automobilism.

Seasonal recommendations
In the spring of September the villa accompanied by the awakening nature and fresh flowers in the surrounding area. The light is delicate and pleasant to observe the facade details. We recommend you put on a lighter jacket and visit the place in the morning when the air is the cleanest and the surrounding area.
The summer season brings a rich green landscape and a bright sun that illuminates the interiors beautifully. It's best to come first thing in the morning to avoid the biggest groups of people. Don't forget light summer clothes and sun protection.
Autumn is wrapped in gold and red, creating a nostalgic atmosphere. The fog in the morning gives the building a mysterious look. Moisture-proof shoes and a visit in the afternoon when the sun paints the walls into warm tones.
In winter, the monument works calmly, especially if it is covered by a layer of snow. The contrast between freezing outdoor air and indoor space is very cosy. It is necessary to wear warm layers and to verify in advance the shortened opening times that are normal during this period.
