Kachelhaus, Heritage monument in downtown Bielefeld, Germany
Kachelhaus is a heritage-protected building in downtown Bielefeld with a green ceramic tile exterior covering both street sides. The facade features continuous shop windows and a circular corner bay above the entrance.
The building was constructed in 1927 by architect Paul Löwenthal for merchant Wilhelm Harms. It survived World War II without damage and retained its original structure.
The building displays ceramic tiles from Meissen, with an inscription on its facade telling about its creation. This visible text makes the history of the place apparent to anyone passing by.
The ground floor now houses a cafe that preserves the original interior furnishings. Visitors can easily access the location on foot and experience the character of the space directly.
The building was technologically advanced for its era, featuring neon lighting and a cooling system. These modern amenities set new standards for commercial architecture of the period.
