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

The Wilhelm Marx House reaches 57 meters into the sky with 13 floors, featuring architectural elements characteristic of 1920s commercial buildings in Germany.

Constructed in 1924 by architect Wilhelm Kreis, this structure marked the emergence of modern skyscrapers in Europe and housed the Düsseldorf Stock Exchange.

The building contains notable artworks, including sculptures by Carl Moritz Schreiner, and currently hosts the JuTA theatre for performing arts productions.

Located at Heinrich-Heine-Allee 53, the building maintains multiple office spaces and remains an active commercial center in Düsseldorf's business district.

The structure bears the name of Düsseldorf's former mayor Wilhelm Marx, though it should not be confused with the German Chancellor of the same name.
