Stadtwaldhaus

Stadtwaldhaus is a two-story building with classic architecture situated within Krefeld's forest and serving as a focal point for visitors. It combines straightforward design with its woodland location and helps orient people to different forest pathways.

The building was constructed in the late 1800s as a tea house to refresh forest visitors and offer them a rest stop. Its purpose of serving travelers has endured over time, though it now offers expanded services.

The building brings people together for local events and gatherings in a woodland setting where the community regularly meets. It shapes how residents experience and use the surrounding forest area.

The building sits at a convenient junction for several walking routes and serves as a natural starting point for exploring the forest. Visitors can find their bearings and plan outings from this central location.

The building shows how deeply woodland culture has shaped Krefeld's urban life over generations and still influences where people go to unwind. It is rare to find a structure that has maintained its basic function for more than a century and a half.
