The Rosenthal Villa was built in 1891. It was the home and center of life for the couple Eduard and Clara Rosenthal and their son Curt. Numerous testimonies attest to the cultural importance of Villa Rosenthal as a meeting place of science, art and politics. The couple promoted social exchange and supported educational programs for workers and employees. After Clara Rosenthal's death in 1941, the building was bequeathed to the city of Jena in her will and has served as a residence ever since. In 2004, the villa was taken over by jenawohnen GmbH and extensively renovated.
