Warteck Treppe

The exterior staircase spans nine floors, connecting multiple public spaces within the converted industrial building through a series of steel sections.

The Warteck staircase emerged from the 2014 transformation of a 1930s brewery complex, preserving the industrial heritage while adding modern functionality.

The structure stands as part of a cultural center that houses workshops, studios, and event spaces for artists and community members.

Visitors can access the public rooftop terrace independently through this illuminated staircase, which features integrated LED lighting for nighttime safety.

The eastern facade incorporates large glass panels replacing two-thirds of the original brick wall, allowing natural light to penetrate the interior spaces.
