Ziegelhütte, Artist's house and exhibition venue in Martinsviertel, Darmstadt, Germany.

The Ziegelhütte spans three floors in a timber-framed building with an enclosed garden located between Kranichsteiner Straße and Kastanienallee in Darmstadt.

Originally constructed as a brickworks facility 300 years ago, the Ziegelhütte operated until 1972 when Willi Berntheisel ended production after managing it since 1934.

The building houses international artist residencies, contemporary exhibitions, and serves as headquarters for both the Darmstadt Secession and Press Club Darmstadt since 2013.

The venue accommodates up to 70 people for events and features dedicated spaces for art exhibitions, workshops, meetings, and artist accommodations throughout the year.

Theater photographer Pit Ludwig transformed the former barn into his residence and studio in the 1970s, initiating efforts to preserve the structure from demolition.
