Kaufhaus Magis, Department store and architectural heritage monument in Mitte, Germany.
The Kaufhaus Magis building features horizontal window bands, a glazed staircase tower, and a rounded corner at the intersection of Georgstraße and Bahnhofstraße.
Built in 1952 by architects Paul and Rudolf Brandes with Ludwig Thiele, the structure replaced the original store that was destroyed during World War II.
The building design follows the architectural principles of Erich Mendelsohn from the 1920s, representing post-war commercial development in Hannover.
The former department store now houses H&M and maintains its retail function while preserving its protected architectural status in the city center.
The Magis Star, containing 700 light bulbs, remains a permanent fixture of the building's facade and illuminates during Christmas celebrations.
