Baedekerhaus, Architectural heritage office building in Essen, Germany.
The Baedekerhaus features a concrete construction with architectural elements typical of early 20th-century commercial buildings in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Peter Behrens designed this structure in 1910 to serve as the administration building for the Mannesmann factory, marking a period of industrial growth.
The building transformation into the House of History of North Rhine-Westphalia represents the preservation of regional heritage through architectural adaptation.
Located at coordinates 51.4552°N and 7.01268°E, the building maintains its function as an office space while preserving its historical characteristics.
French troops occupied the building during the Ruhr occupation, and later the British Military Government used it following World War II.
