    Use of the site since 2012

    The Salzmann & Comp location closed in 2012. its doors. The city of Kassel planned to set up a technical town hall there together with the building owner, investor Dennis Rossing. The tenants of the industrial monument therefore had their rental contracts terminated. The association then moved its activities to the Panoptikum in the former Kupferhammer at Leipziger Straße 407. However, the original cultural program can only be realized there to a limited extent.

    In the years that followed, several plans to further develop the area as a living space and shopping center failed because the city, owners and investors could not agree on a common concept. A temporary use as refugee accommodation also failed. In January 2014, the Kassel FDP parliamentary group proposed to completely demolish the building complex. Three months later, in April 2014, the factory was included in the Red List of Culture of the German Cultural Council and placed in category 2 (endangered) due to failed renovation and conversion plans. classified.

    In December 2015, the city of Rossing called on Rossing to secure the site against decay in order to preserve the listed building parts after BHB Bauwert Holding withdrew from the planned residential development in August 2015 and the project failed.

    On January 22, 2016, the city announced that it would have the building secured and bill the costs to Rossing, who then announced legal action. In July 2016, the Kassel administrative court found that Rossing had to secure the building. Since Rossing did not fulfill his obligation, security measures were commissioned by the city.
