Hefehof, Cultural heritage monument in Hamelin, Germany.
Hefehof is a building complex in Hamelin consisting of multiple structures with different architectural styles from different periods. The site integrates older factory buildings with modern additions and now serves as an exhibition space for the town's automobile museum.
The complex originated in the early 20th century as a car body manufacturing factory operated under the name Burkart & Günther GmbH. This production was an important part of Hamelin's regional automobile industry.
The Hefehof houses the Automobile Museum of Hamelin and displays vehicles along with manufacturing equipment from the region's automotive industry. Visitors can observe how the spaces are used to communicate the town's craftsmanship tradition.
The site is easily accessible on foot and the interior is designed to be barrier-free so all visitors can explore the exhibitions comfortably. It is advisable to allow enough time to thoroughly view the various sections and vehicles.
A special section of the complex known as Mutterschiff shows how contemporary architecture is connected with the original industrial structures. This area demonstrates the transformation of the site from a factory grounds to a modern exhibition space.
