The dynamic development of Szczecin residential architecture, which began at the end of the nineteenth century, entered a new stage at the beginning of the twentieth century. Its shape was influenced by political, economic and social changes. New aesthetic currents, which heralded the coming new era, were also significant. One of the most important architects who was active in contemporaneous Szczecin was Adolf Thesmacher. An analysis of his achievements in the field of villa architecture of Szczecin can be a valuable analogy to the shaping of contemporary local architecture.
