Industrie- und Handelskammer zu Flensburg, Chamber of Commerce in Flensburg, Germany
The Chamber of Commerce in Flensburg is a chamber for trade and commerce located in Schleswig-Holstein, housed in a protected building on Heinrichstrasse. The main structure was designed in 1903 by architect Heinrich Lassen and displays the classical merchant architecture typical of that era.
The institution was founded in 1830 as the Flensburg Trade Association, bringing merchants and retailers together to represent their shared interests. Over the decades, it evolved into a significant force for economic advancement across the Schleswig-Holstein region.
The Chamber serves as a central institution for commercial development in Schleswig-Holstein, representing businesses across Flensburg, Dithmarschen, Nordfriesland, and Schleswig-Flensburg districts.
The building is located in the city center and is easily accessible by public transport or on foot, with its classical facade being easy to spot. Visitors should keep in mind that this is an active business institution and access may vary depending on office hours and ongoing activities.
In the 1980s the building received a modern extension by architect Karl-Heinz Sönnichsen that respectfully merges the historic structure with contemporary design. A glass customer hall was later added, creating an interesting contrast between old and new.
