Disch-Haus, Office building in Altstadt-Nord, Germany.

The Disch-Haus features continuous window bands and travertine strips across its rounded corner facade at Brückenstraße and Herzogstraße intersection.

Architects Bruno Paul and Franz Weber designed this New Objectivity style building in 1928 to replace the former Hotel Disch at the same location.

From 1933 to 1938, the building served as headquarters for the Jewish Cultural Association Rhine-Ruhr and housed numerous Jewish businesses and law firms.

The building contains 10,000 square meters of office space across six floors, with fully glazed shop windows on the ground level.

The building maintains one of the few permitted Schindler paternoster elevators in Cologne, installed in 1952 and still operational.
