Stelzenhaus, Cultural heritage building in Leipzig, Germany.

The Stelzenhaus stands on 101 reinforced concrete pillars measuring 1 x 1 meter each, supporting the structure along the Karl-Heine Canal.

Built between 1937 and 1939 by architect Hermann Böttcher, the building served as a corrugated sheet metal factory for Grohmann & Frosch company.

The building represents a significant example of 1930s industrial architecture in Leipzig, featuring innovative construction methods for its time period.

Following extensive restoration from 2001 to 2003, the building now contains offices, apartments, and studios accessible during regular business hours.

Each concrete pillar was engineered to carry 1000 kilograms of rubble, meeting specific air-raid protection requirements of pre-war Germany.
