    de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speicherstadt_M%C3%BCnster
    The Speicherstadt Münster is a modern office and communication center on an area of 11.5 hectares in an old military warehouse district in the Coerde district of Münster. The conversion began after the end of military use in the mid-1990s. Well-known companies such as the internet bookseller thalia.de are now based in the Speicherstadt. The editors of the cultural magazine Westfalenspiegel and the Ardey publishing house are also based here.
    The history of the Speicherstadt in the north of Münster begins in 1936. As part of the preparations for war for the Second World War, the Army Administration was looking for a location for a new Army Catering Office, which was responsible for catering production and logistical planning for the garrisons stationed in Northern Germany.
    In 1939, the Speicherstadt was completed as a main supply office for the army after only three years of construction. The central component was seven floor storage facilities and two cell storage facilities for grain, each five stories high. Even today they extend over a length of almost 600 m. An intelligent conveyor and flap system guaranteed vertical and horizontal transport in the stores.


    The warehouse district also had its own army bakery, which produced up to 30,000 loaves of bread a day. Accordingly, a great deal of logistical effort in terms of people and material was necessary. A city of its own was created with casino buildings, workshops, garages, administration buildings, sleeping quarters and other buildings around the granaries.

      Conversion project of a former 11.5 hectare "Heeresverpflegungshauptamt" from the times of National Socialism. A modern office and communication center was created. The buildings are under monument protection. Numerous companies and institutions are located in the former granaries and the bakery.
