Henschelhaus, Cultural heritage monument in downtown Kassel, Germany.
The Henschelhaus spans sixteen axes, featuring a reconstructed facade that incorporates elements from the former Brühlsches Haus at the intersection of Neuen Fahrt and Kölnischen Straße.
Originally constructed between 1921 and 1923 as a branch of the Darmstädter und Nationalbank, the building was later acquired by the Henschel family in 1939 for their management company.
The structure maintains its historical presence through the preserved facade, which architect Karl Wittrock designed with Rococo style elements integrated into the modern commercial building.
The building underwent complete reconstruction in 2010, with authorities requiring the retention of the original facade and roof during the redevelopment process.
During World War II, the building endured substantial damage, leading to the replacement of its original gable roof with a mansard roof, altering its architectural profile.
