Wohnhäuser Fabrikhof 3/4

Wohnhäuser Fabrikhof 3/4 are red brick residential buildings from the late 19th century, arranged in a rhythmic pattern around a factory courtyard. Each structure contains eleven apartments and features characteristic architectural details such as cornices and pilaster strips.

Nordwolle factory built these houses around 1890 to accommodate its growing workforce in wool production. The company expanded rapidly during this period, becoming a major employer in the region.

The buildings reflect the worker culture of the industrial era, with each structure designed to house different job ranks within the company. Residents lived in close proximity to their workplace, shaping daily routines and neighborhood bonds.

The residential complex is located within the factory courtyard district and can be easily accessed from nearby streets and local pathways. The site sits conveniently near the Delme River and remains walkable from the surrounding neighborhood.

The buildings display typical late 19th-century worker housing architecture with distinctive dental-like cornices and carefully crafted details. These recurring geometric patterns reflect the aesthetic principles of industrial-era construction and design.
