Gebrüder Dippe

Gebrüder Dippe was a seed breeding enterprise located in Quedlinburg with multiple buildings constructed between 1850 and 1910 in Classicism style. The complex at Neuer Weg 21 contained administrative offices, production facilities, and residential structures for company employees.

The enterprise was founded in 1850 by brothers Gustav Adolf and Christof Lorenz Dippe as a seed breeding operation. By 1890 the company controlled roughly one-sixth of the world's sugar beet seed production.

The bronze reliefs and portrait busts displayed at the company buildings reflect how the founding family was honored within the local community. Visitors can still see these tributes to the Dippe family when walking through the remaining structures today.

The site is located at Neuer Weg 21 and comprises multiple connected structures that served different functions across the complex. Plan time to explore the various building sections and the residential areas surrounding the main facility.

The company constructed 270 employee apartments in red brick buildings distributed across several streets including Rambergweg, Heinrichstraße, and Mathildenstraße. These housing complexes demonstrate how the enterprise provided for its workforce and shaped residential development in the surrounding neighborhoods.
