    A grandiose construction. Over 100 years old. Gropius shone here for the first time

    The Fagus factory is a factory in the southern Lower Saxon town of Alfeld on the line and headquarters of the companies Fagus GreCon and Weinig Grecon. The work was designed in 1911 by the architect Walter Gropius and his colleague Adolf Meyer and is one of the first examples of architectural modernism since 1946 under monument protection. Since June 2011, the entire factory has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

    We took part in a very informative guided tour of the architecture - highly recommended!!! Afterwards we looked at the interesting and entertaining exhibition and in the meantime we were able to fortify ourselves in the canteen 😊. A unique world heritage site as it still serves its purpose!!! Be sure to plan enough time...
