Glaspalast, Architectural heritage monument in Erlangen, Germany

The Glaspalast rises 60 meters into the sky with its modern glass facade, featuring 17 floors of architectural precision in central Erlangen.

Commissioned by Siemens-Schuckert and designed by architect Hans Maurer, this significant building emerged in 1962 as part of Erlangen's urban development.

The building represents Bavaria's architectural preservation efforts through its designation as a protected monument, maintaining its original design elements.
