Müllers Mühle, Grain silo facility in Schalke, Gelsenkirchen, Germany.
The Getreidesilo Am Stadthafen stands 37 meters tall with three chambers that hold 2,060 tons of rice next to the Rhine-Herne Canal.
The structure was constructed in 1949 using surplus U-boat hulls from the nearby Kesselfabrik Orange factory after World War II ended.
The building earned the name 'Schalker Erbsenturm' from local residents and represents the industrial heritage of the Ruhr region's food production sector.
Modern rice processing operations continue at the facility, which serves as both a storage center and manufacturing plant for various grain products.
The six-story structure remains Germany's largest rice storage facility, constructed from repurposed submarine parts due to post-war material shortages.
