Kreuzbauten, Architectural heritage monument in Hochkreuz, Bad Godesberg, Germany.

The Kreuzbauten consists of two cross-shaped high-rise buildings, four smaller base structures with square layouts, and three pavilions connected through courtyards and pathways.

The complex was constructed in 1974 to house federal ministries, including the Ministry of Justice, Education and Science, and Research and Technology in Bonn-Bad Godesberg.

The architectural ensemble features numerous integrated artworks, including a monumental bronze light wall created by Karl Josef Dierkes for the central courtyard.

Building A1, constructed between 1969 and 1975, contains facilities such as a library and training rooms, currently housing the Federal Railway Office.

Originally planned as seven buildings for federal ministries, the project was reduced to two towers due to public opposition and municipal design considerations.
