Affenfelsen, High-rise building at Gisselberger Straße, Marburg, Germany.
The Affenfelsen rises 51 meters into the sky with 14 floors, forming a concrete residential structure at the intersection of two main streets.
Before the construction in 1973, the location housed the Wirtshaus an der Lahn, a traditional tavern established in 1783 along the road to Frankfurt.
The building name translates to 'Monkey Rock' and represents the 1970s architectural movement that introduced modern structures into historical German cities.
The high-rise contains multiple residential units with elevator access, offering views across Marburg and direct connections to public transportation.
The structure stands as the tallest residential building in central Marburg, designed by architect Hans-Werner Schreyer in the Brutalist architectural style.
