HICOG-Siedlung Tannenbusch, Protected architectural heritage settlement in Tannenbusch, Germany.

The HICOG settlement features five distinct building types, including an eleven-story tower with an H-shaped layout, arranged asymmetrically across the landscape.

Built in 1951 within eight months, this residential complex accommodated American High Commission staff members during Germany's post-war reconstruction period.

The settlement contains 412 apartments of various sizes, from one to four rooms, reflecting the living standards and requirements of American civil servants.

Located near railway lines and sports facilities, the settlement includes furnished apartments with built-in kitchens and interior furnishings from the 1950s.

The complex represents the first high-rise building in Bonn and received monument protection status in 1995, including its original interior elements.
