An example of a modernized vernacular style. An elongated building with three staggered wings, incorporating a forecourt (Richard Wagner Square). It was built for Siemens AG, hence the assumption that the architect Hans Hertlein was involved. The complex is excellently proportioned and aimed for compatibility with the old town opposite: cladding in Burgsandstein (castle sandstone), high hipped roofs.
