One of the most beautiful buildings in Trier – Villa Reverchon – is a striking and incredibly stylish neo-classical in design. Built on a high hill, it is well visible from different points and attracts tourists. If you look back in history, the building belongs to the beginning of the 20th century. The start of construction is considered in 1909, it is also known that the Villa was built in just three years, which at that time was quite revealing result. A combination of sophisticated project and capability of the construction sector in that period of time was built the imposing building with an interesting architectural "face".
The first purpose of this luxurious building was a private residence. It is clear that to order such a house could only be a very rich man, it was known in the town banker, Adrian Reverchon. It is interesting that the banker held a competition among the architects who were willing to give him the project of the residence, taking into account not only artistic, but also other requirements.
Not to say that the building was not damaged even during the Second world war because it was used as headquarters for the railroad. Saved were all the paintings inside the walls, well-preserved pieces of furniture. Today the Villa Reverchon serves as a training room, there is one of the private schools.
