Hotel Kaiserhof, Heritage hotel in Barkhausen, Porta Westfalica, Germany
The Hotel Kaiserhof stands as a three-story building with distinct architectural features, reflecting traditional German design elements from the late 19th century.
Built between 1895 and 1896 to accommodate visitors to the Kaiser Wilhelm Monument, the hotel served as accommodation for Nazi forced laborers during World War II.
The grand hall of Hotel Kaiserhof hosted the celebratory dinner for the Kaiser Wilhelm Monument inauguration on October 18, 1896.
Following reconstruction from 2013 to 2015 after fire damage, the building remains unoccupied and plans exist to convert it into apartments and offices.
The foundation stone certificate from 1895 dedicated the building to Emperor Wilhelm, connecting it permanently to the monument on the mountain above.
