Quadenhof, Medieval brick fortress in Gerresheim, Germany.

The Quadenhof features a rectangular three-story brick construction with a steep gable roof, cross-windows, and a baroque cupola on top.

Built between 1427 and 1436 for Godert von Broichhusen, the property received its name from the Quad von Raede family who acquired it in 1458.

The building stands as one of the remaining secular brick structures from the late Middle Ages in the Düsseldorf region.

Located at Gerricusplatz 23 in Düsseldorf-Gerresheim, the Quadenhof functions as an architectural heritage monument open for exterior viewing.

The eastern facade displays a central gable with a 15th-century cross-window above the entrance and four additional cross-windows beside the Aborterk.
