Cargolifter-Luftschiffhalle, Aircraft hangar in Brand-Briesen, Germany
The structure spans 360 meters in length, 210 meters in width, and reaches 107 meters in height, making it one of the largest free-standing buildings.
Built in 2000 for CargoLifter AG's airship manufacturing project, the facility declared bankruptcy in 2002 after investing 300 million euros from 70,000 shareholders.
The hangar's construction marked Germany's ambition to revive airship manufacturing, reflecting the nation's industrial engineering capabilities in the post-reunification period.
Located near Berlin, the structure maintains a constant indoor temperature of 18 degrees Celsius through an integrated floor heating system.
The hangar's interior space could accommodate the Eiffel Tower laying horizontally and was designed to simultaneously produce two CL-160 airships.
