Landesoberbergamt Dortmund, Mining authority building in Dortmund, Germany.

The Landesoberbergamt building exhibits a U-shaped design with substantial dimensions near Dortmund's main train station, representing 1930s administrative architecture.

Architect Emil Rudolf Mewes designed this structure between 1937 and 1938 as the headquarters for Gelsenkirchen Mining-AG, though construction paused during World War II.

The building stands as a testament to North Rhine-Westphalia's mining industry regulation, reflecting the region's deep connection to resource extraction governance.

Located at coordinates 51.5111 latitude and 7.48194 longitude, the structure maintains its position as an architectural heritage monument under preservation regulations.

Following its vacancy by the Dortmund City Council in 2004, plans emerged to convert this former mining authority building into a luxury hotel development.
