Fraunhofer-Haus

The Fraunhofer-Haus is a research office tower in the Sendling-Westpark district of Munich, rising 17 stories with a glass and steel structure. The building contains laboratories, offices, and collaborative spaces designed for scientific work and applied research.

The building was completed in 2003 by architectural firm Henn GmbH, marking a turning point in Munich's growth as a research center. Its construction reflected Germany's expanding commitment to applied science and innovation during the early 2000s.

The ground floor displays the metallic art installation 'Moving Lines' by Reinhold Föst, where science and art come together. Visitors can observe how creative expression finds a place within a research-focused building.

The building is well connected to Munich's public transportation network with nearby subway and bus stations. The site is accessible and the surrounding area offers space to walk around and explore the neighborhood.

The building serves as headquarters for the Fraunhofer Society, Europe's largest applied research organization, connecting science and industry worldwide. This role makes it a hub for innovation projects that shape technologies across many fields.
