The Dortmunder U: A Landmark of Art, Creativity, and Structural Change
A Former Brewery, Now a Hub for Culture
Nestled in the heart of Dortmund, Germany, the Dortmunder U, also known as the U-Tower, is a testament to the city's industrial past and its vibrant present. Originally constructed in 1926-1927 as a fermentation and storage cellar for the Dortmunder Union Brewery, the high-rise building has undergone a remarkable transformation.
A Center for Arts and Creativity
Since 2010, the Dortmunder U has served as a vibrant center for the arts and creativity. It houses a wide range of institutions, including art galleries, museums, a theater, and a concert hall. Today, the U-Tower is a place of commemoration for industrial culture and one of the most prominent landmarks in the eastern Ruhr region.
Partners within the Dortmunder U showcase art, foster creativity, and develop modern formats to engage people in Dortmund and the surrounding region. The U-Tower is not only a cultural center with international appeal, but also a symbol of structural change.
