Störtebeker-Haus

Störtebeker-Haus, Modern office building in Hamm district, Hamburg, Germany.

The Störtebeker-Haus is a modern office building in the Hamm district with a brick facade that incorporates traditional Hanseatic architectural elements. The structure combines contemporary design with classical details and houses multiple floors for various uses.

The Störtebeker-Haus was completed in 2004 in the Hamburg district of Hamm. Its builders deliberately modelled the facade on the Kontorhäuser of the 19th and early 20th centuries, invoking Hamburg's Hanseatic tradition and merchant era. The building is named after the pirate Klaus Störtebeker, and the carillon of the western clock tower depicts his execution and that of his followers.

The building takes its name from the pirate Klaus Störtebeker, and its facade is meant to recall Hamburg's Hanseatic merchant era. Inside, maritime ornaments include a wind rose giving distances to cities around the world. The western clock tower carries a carillon depicting the execution of Störtebeker and his followers.

The building stands at a crossroads in Hamm, where the 14-metre granite column with the copper cog replica marks the corner. The two street wings are joined by a stair tower and flanked by two clock towers; the western one carries the carillon. The sixth floor holds the Störtebeker-Saal (about 140 m²) and the Goedeke-Michel-Saal (about 200 m²), and the 55 m² foyer can also be booked for celebrations.

The western clock tower carries a carillon whose figures depict the execution of Klaus Störtebeker and his followers. The 14-metre granite column at the crossing in front is crowned by a 4-metre steel and copper model of his cog, made by the Husum metal artist Gerd Beliaeff.
