Jakob-Kemenate, Medieval stone house in Brunswick, Germany
The Jakob-Kemenate features a modern glass corridor connecting the main structure to a front building constructed during its 2006 restoration.
Built around 1250, the Jakob-Kemenate served as Germany's first bank when Duke Karl I established the Ducal Lending House in the 18th century.
The building now functions as an art and community center, hosting exhibitions, music events, and readings in collaboration with local organizations.
Located at coordinates 52.2617°N, 10.5176°E, the Jakob-Kemenate welcomes visitors Monday through Saturday from 11:00 to 17:00 and Sundays from 12:00 to 17:00.
The structure incorporates a movable Corten steel facade designed by artist Jörg Plickat, combining medieval architecture with contemporary artistic elements.
