Schürmann-Bau, Office building in Gronau, Bonn, Germany.

The Schürmann-Bau spans 300 meters along Kurt-Schumacher-Straße, positioned between the Post Tower and Langer Eugen buildings in Bonn.

The Rhine River flood of December 1993 lifted the unfinished building's shell by 70 centimeters, leading to extensive repairs and a 700 million euro cost.

The Deutsche Welle headquarters houses multiple international art installations, including works by Sokari Douglas Camp and Manuel Marin since 2004.

The German public broadcaster Deutsche Welle has operated from this location since July 2003, with Phoenix television channel joining in 2024.

Construction workers flooded the building's cellars with 300,000 cubic meters of water during the Rhine flood to prevent structural damage.

Location: Bonn
