Tausendfensterhaus, Brick expressionist building in Ruhrort, Germany.
The Tausendfensterhaus features continuous rows of uniformly aligned windows across its entire facade, creating a distinctive pattern on the brick exterior walls.
Built between 1922 and 1923, this structure served as the headquarters for Rheinische Stahlwerke following an architects' competition that shaped its final design.
The building stands as a testament to North Rhine-Westphalia's industrial heritage, incorporating decorative masonry details that reflect early 20th-century German craftsmanship.
Located at Ruhrorter Strasse 187 in Duisburg, the building now houses multiple businesses and an outpatient eye clinic following its 1996 renovation.
The structure's inner courtyard, originally open to the elements, was transformed with a glass roof during modernization works by architect Harald Deilmann.
