Malzfabrik Schöneberg, Industrial heritage site in Tempelhof-Schöneberg, Germany.
Malzfabrik Schöneberg is a former malt production facility featuring red brick buildings and four distinctive metal kiln bonnets shaped like helmets. The site comprises nine structures housing event spaces, artist studios, and production facilities.
The complex was designed by architect Richard Schlüter and built between 1914 and 1917 for the Schultheiß brewery. It became Europe's largest malt producer during the 1920s and played a key role in the region's industrial growth.
Artists, musicians, and creative businesses now occupy the former industrial complex for exhibitions, performances, and productions. The buildings have become a gathering place where cultural activities shape the local creative scene.
The site offers multiple event spaces of different sizes with natural lighting and modern equipment for various types of gatherings. Plan extra time to explore the different buildings and outdoor courtyards throughout the complex.
The site preserves its original railway connections and vintage production machinery, offering glimpses into early 20th-century German manufacturing. These preserved elements reveal how the factory once operated and connected to transport networks.
