Wilhelm Marx House, Commercial high-rise building in Stadtmitte, Düsseldorf, Germany

The Wilhelm Marx House is a commercial building in Düsseldorf with 13 floors and reaches 57 meters high. The structure shows features of modern 1920s architecture with clean lines and functional design.

The building was designed in 1924 by architect Wilhelm Kreis and marked the start of modern skyscrapers in Europe. It originally housed the Düsseldorf Stock Exchange and was a symbol of the city's economic prosperity.

Inside, you'll find artworks like sculptures by Carl Moritz Schreiner that shape the building's character. Today the JuTA theatre uses the spaces for performances, bringing cultural activity to the location.

The building sits at Heinrich-Heine-Allee 53 in the city's business district and is easily accessible. It houses various offices and remains an active center for commercial and cultural activities.

The building carries the name of Düsseldorf's former mayor, not the same-named German Chancellor. This distinction is often overlooked, though it matters for understanding the local story.
