Hochtiefhaus, Office building in Essen, Germany.

The Hochtiefhaus features a pointed head building with wings of different lengths and a main entrance facing the Opera Square in Essen's city center.

Built in 1938 by architects Curt Bucerius and Theodor Kleemann, the building served as Hochtief construction company headquarters until 2020.

The steel cast entrance door displays typical construction work processes, reflecting the building's connection to the construction industry.

The structure contained modern facilities including a telephone exchange, blueprint reproduction services, social spaces, and an employee cafeteria.

The building forms an architectural ensemble with the RWE Tower and Aalto Theater at Opera Square, marking central elements of Essen's urban layout.
