Steinhof, Cultural center in Duisburg, Germany.

Steinhof is a cultural center in Duisburg that houses exhibitions, concerts, and various events throughout the year. The building stands in the Huckingen district and offers a varied program for those interested in the arts and music.

The Steinhof is first documented in 1454 as a free knight's estate, but its nearly square residential tower is older: the lower section dates from the late 12th century, the middle storey from the first half of the 13th century and the second upper storey from the late 13th or 14th century. Owners included the chapter of St. Lambertus in Düsseldorf from 1454 to 1805, the state domain administration until 1819, the Counts of Spee until 1949 and the city of Duisburg since 1949. Farming ceased in 1971, and citizens prevented demolition for an elevated railway line in 1970/71.

The Steinhof is run by the non-profit association Kultur- und Bürgerzentrum Duisburg Süd Steinhof Huckingen e.V., which leases the site from the city and keeps it operating through volunteer work. Its hall and courtyard host events for around 600 people, and a local museum is being considered for Iron Age and Merovingian finds from the area.

The Steinhof stands at Düsseldorfer Landstraße 347 in Huckingen, on the old road between Kaiserswerth and Duisburg, not by the Angerbach like the nearby moated castles. The site is run by the non-profit Kultur- und Bürgerzentrum Duisburg Süd Steinhof Huckingen e.V., whose volunteers staff the building and adjoining hall for around 600 people. Check the association's event listings before visiting, since the grounds open mainly for events.

The Steinhof was saved from demolition twice: in 1970/1971 citizens blocked a planned elevated rapid-transit line between Düsseldorf and Duisburg, and after farming ended in 1971 the courtyard faced decay. A citizens' association founded on 31 May 1999 pushed the conversion into a community centre; the foundation stone was laid on 9 March 2001.
