Industriegut Hammer, Industrial heritage monument in Laufamholz district, Nuremberg, Germany.

The industrial complex encompasses historical buildings, including a manor house, workers' residences, mills, and production facilities along the Pegnitz River.

Originally established as a mill in 1372, the site transformed into the largest brass factory in the Nuremberg region by 1806 under the Kingdom of Bavaria.

The factory implemented advanced social policies, establishing a school for workers' children in 1650 and creating pension systems for employees.

Visitors can explore the preserved industrial buildings throughout the year and learn about metalworking history at the museum open from Easter to October.

The facility earned recognition for its metal foil production, which reached markets as far as Asia, and received a silver medal at the 1834 Munich Industrial Exhibition.
