Neuffer, Industrial heritage site in Pirmasens, Germany.

The former shoe factory encompasses multiple buildings with a castle-like entrance decorated with symbolic sculptures representing commerce and craftsmanship.

Founded in 1894 by Emil Paqué with 150 employees, the factory reached production capacity of 5,000 shoe pairs daily before Emil Neuffer acquired it in 1926.

The building features architectural elements designed by Josef Uhl in 1919, including sculptures of deities Demeter, Aphrodite, and Hermes on the facade.

The complex now functions as Neuffer am Park, housing offices, medical facilities, and event spaces at Waldstrasse 18 in Pirmasens.

During World War II, the factory switched from regular shoe production to manufacturing and repairing military uniforms and boots for German forces.
