Friedrichsbau (Heidelberg)

The chateau-like three-wing property was built in 1863 for use by the Ruprecht-Karls-University Heidelberg and is located in the immediate vicinity of the Old Anatomy.

Later, the upper floors also served as official apartments for professors from the University of Heidelberg and their families.

[2] The three-storey Friedericianum is built in a simple late classicist style as an open three-wing complex.

The first plans from 1847 show an expansion of the institute to the neighboring anatomy, but this was postponed for cost reasons.

The three-part building, completed in 1863, with the green courtyard of honor facing the main street, is closely based on the designs originally created by Heinrich Hübsch.
