Tips

Birgit Bossbach

October 25, 2024

The former Zanders paper factory went bankrupt in 2021. Since May 2024, it can be crossed by bike. The disused paper factory is in the middle of being converted into a new district of Bergisch Gladbach. Since 2018, twelve different monuments on the site have been protected: from the historic administration and gatehouse building to a steam storage locomotive, the bust garden and industrial halls, some of which still have original technical equipment for paper production. On this day, special focus is on the monumental power plant by Dominikus Böhm. (Source: Stiftung Denkmalschutz)
