Experience industrial culture up close: Discover Jödebrunnen and Kontorhaus
During the INDUSTRIAL CULTURE Café special, Harald Schweingruber will guide you through one of the most exciting historical ensembles in Braunschweig: the Jödebrunnen and the Kontorhaus at Jödebrunnen. On June 16, 2026, a place will open here where city history, technology, and water architecture come to life.
An ensemble with rare brilliance
The Jödebrunnen is among the most notable monuments in the city's history. Together with the Kontorhaus, it creates an authentic event experience that not only explains industrial culture but makes it tangible. The tour combines historical facts with anecdotes and a unique audience atmosphere that fits this location perfectly.
History you can feel on site
The Kontorhaus was built in 1899 as an office for a timber trading company and is located right next to the historical facilities at Jödebrunnen. The association Kontorhaus am Jödebrunnen e.V. is committed to preserving and meaningfully using the building as a place for history, science, and technology. This adds a clear professional depth to the tour and a strong connection to Braunschweig’s urban development.
A short evening full of content
The event lasts about two hours and is suitable for anyone wanting to rediscover Braunschweig through its industrial culture. The format combines event planning with accessible target group communication: compact, informative, and close to the history of the district. Those who love historic places will experience a particularly atmospheric tour experience here.
Why the visit is worth it
Visitors to the Kontorhaus at Jödebrunnen not only gain insights into a protected ensemble but also into the development of a district shaped by industry, water, and change. The tour creates proximity to the location and makes history tangible on site.
Conclusion: This INDUSTRIAL CULTURE Café special connects Braunschweig’s history with a genuine on-site experience. Anyone who values industrial culture, monument preservation, and well-told urban history should not miss the appointment on June 16, 2026.
