Germany: Villa Erckens in Grevenbroich

Yesterday I got a postcard from Germany.

It shows the Villa Erckens in Grevenbroich. The Villa Erckens was built in 1887 for an industrialist and his family. Due to the bankruptcy of their company after World War II the city bought the villa. In 1989 a museum was opened there and since 2012 it houses the Museum of the Lower-Rhenish Soul.


Stamp:
500th birthday of Lucas Cranach the Younger (issued 01-10-2015)


Thank You very much Marcel!
