Nestled in a historic park on the banks of the Main River near Frankfurt, the Lili Temple exudes timeless elegance and evokes the era of Goethe. Built in 1798 as a classicist bathing and garden pavilion by banker Friedrich Metzler, it served as a luxurious marble bath and elegant social space. The combination of raw natural stone and fine classical architecture gives the building a unique aesthetic. Surrounded by old trees, a pond, and romantic paths, the property feels like a refuge from a bygone era. Named after Goethe's childhood sweetheart Lili Schönemann, the place tells a tender love story that gives the temple an almost magical aura. As an important cultural monument, the temple has been lovingly restored and is now considered an architectural gem and a living testimony to classical architecture. A place of history, beauty, and quiet longing—then as now.

The approximately 83 sq.m. living room impresses with its clear geometry, generous glass façade, and flowing transition to nature. The floor-to-ceiling windows offer spectacular views of the romantic garden and can be opened completely onto the terrace—ideal for stylish receptions or relaxed summer days. A cement floor and minimalist architecture create a tranquil setting for living, working, and entertaining. The kitchen, with Boffi furniture, Miele appliances, and a view of Lili Park, forms the heart of the house. A guest room with en suite bathroom, a functional rear entrance, and a sculptural staircase lead to the upper floor with two bedrooms, a dressing room, and an elegant bathroom. A light-flooded gallery connects the rooms and opens up the view to the Main River. Fine materials, understated design, and well-thought-out room sequences make this house a place of clarity, elegance, and inspiring openness.
