Here you see the restored Ludowici ball house, The ball house is made of metal (diameter 4,50m) and intended as emergency accommodation, which can be transported by truck, boat or helicopter to any desired location. Invented by Johann Wilhelm Ludowici (1896 - 1983) in the 1950s The idea caused a sensation around the world but was never produced in series. One copy was restored by the Förderverein Ziegeleimuseum in 2002. (Source: Rhein-Neckar-Industriekultur e.V.)

A highlight in Jockgrim is the restored example of a spherical house, invented by Johann Wilhelm Ludowici. It contains everything needed for a two-person household. There is a view of the interior through the windows.

The Kugelhaus is part of the museum's exhibition. The entrance fee is € 3.00 😅😅😅
