Kornhaus, Historical building at Cathedral Square, Freiburg, Germany
The Kornhaus stands at the northwest corner of Freiburg Cathedral Square, featuring a modern interior within its reconstructed historical exterior structure.
Originally constructed in 1498 for King Maximilian I's Imperial Diet, the Kornhaus served as a grain market and festival hall for citizens and guilds.
The building housed a theater between 1770 and 1824, marking a period of theatrical performances and cultural gatherings in Freiburg's history.
The current Kornhaus contains retail shops and a cafe on its ground floor, with direct access from the Cathedral Square in central Freiburg.
After its near-complete destruction during World War II bombing raids in 1944, the Kornhaus underwent reconstruction in 1970 maintaining its historical facade.
