Eiskeller Altenberge

The Eiskeller features thick stone walls and an underground chamber designed to maintain constant low temperatures for food and beverage preservation.

Originally part of the Beuing Brewery operations until the 1920s, this ice cellar represents a period when natural ice storage was essential for local businesses.

The structure stands as an example of German engineering practices from the pre-industrial era, demonstrating local food preservation methods in North Rhine-Westphalia.

Located near Altenberge's town center, the ice cellar structure remains intact and illustrates historical refrigeration techniques through its architectural features.

The underground chamber maintains naturally cool temperatures throughout the year without any mechanical systems, using only architectural design principles.
