Hochhaus am Albertplatz, Modern high-rise building at Albertplatz, Dresden, Germany

The eleven-story Hochhaus am Albertplatz reaches 37 meters in height, featuring a concrete skeleton construction with protruding bay windows and set-back upper floors.

Built in 1929 by architect Hermann Paulick, the building initially served as headquarters for the Saxon State Bank until 1945, surviving World War II due to its construction.

The building represents the early modern architectural movement in Dresden, marking a transition period in the city's building design during the late 1920s.

Following extensive renovations between 2013 and 2015, the structure now contains retail spaces, including a Simmelmarkt grocery store and various commercial establishments.

The structure stands as Dresden's oldest office high-rise and remains one of the few preserved buildings from the pre-war modern architectural period.
