Eisenhütte Augustfehn - Café-Restaurant-Kultur, German restaurant in Augustfehn district, Apen, Germany.
Eisenhütte is a restaurant housed in a converted industrial building featuring exposed brick walls, high ceilings, and large windows that allow abundant natural light throughout the space. The interior combines the raw character of factory architecture with comfortable modern dining facilities.
The building was established in 1850 as an iron foundry by Julius Schultze and Konsul Bley, employing around 300 workers during its industrial years. After more than a century of manufacturing, it underwent conversion to a restaurant in 2014, marking a new chapter in its life.
The name reflects the site's iron foundry heritage, which remains visible in how the space is designed and used today. Visitors experience a blend of historical memory and contemporary dining, making it a gathering place where locals and visitors connect over food and events.
The restaurant is located at Stahlwerkstr 17b and operates Tuesday through Sunday, offering breakfast, lunch, and dinner options. Large windows provide good daytime visibility of the space, and the layout accommodates groups of various sizes comfortably.
Original machinery and tools from the foundry era are displayed throughout the dining areas as decorative elements that shape the visual character of the space. These objects silently tell the story of the industrial labor that took place here for more than 150 years.
