Kesselhaus, Industrial architectural structure in Winterthur, Switzerland
The Kesselhaus features two tall metal chimneys and a rounded front facade that characterizes the entrance to the western districts of Winterthur.
Built between 1954 and 1957, the Kesselhaus served as a power plant for the Sulzer industrial complex, supplying energy to the entire 20-hectare facility.
The building now functions as a multiplex cinema with six theaters, hosting 1,046 seats and maintaining its protected industrial heritage features.
Located at Zürcherstrasse 1-3, the structure contains a bar called Boilerroom on the first floor, featuring three original coal silos in its 18-meter-high space.
The protected facade extends along the street front for 800 meters, making it part of Switzerland's national inventory of heritage sites.
