Gudenauer Weg 134–136

The four-wing concrete structure at Gudenauer Weg spans 42,000 square meters and features terraced levels with green rooftops at 173 meters elevation point.

From 1973 to 2005, the complex served as the training facility for the German Foreign Office, preparing diplomatic service candidates for international missions.

The building's gardens follow Japanese design principles, creating a harmonious connection between architecture and nature through carefully arranged outdoor spaces.

The 1992-1995 extension of the government complex now functions as emergency accommodation, providing shelter for up to 50 refugees since 2016.

Architect Ernst van Dorp designed the building with a dual-purpose concept, allowing for potential conversion into a hotel while maintaining its administrative functions.
