This historic building was once a factory owned by the family of Friedrich Engels, and Engels himself was involved in the workshop here. In the past Karl Marx received his money from here while he was writing his manifesto.

This building now houses the Art Fabrik Hotel (Fabrik meaning “factory”). The concept behind the hotel is to merge art and charity and the hotel’s special commitment is to children’s hospices. Several years ago, Roswitha and Erich Bethe, the founders of the Bethe Foundation, developed the unusual concept of the Art Fabrik Hotel.

The hotel’s unique restaurant is a work of art in and of itself. Here you can experience how art, music and food harmonise perfectly together. Every aspect of the restaurant was designed and created by artists and each individual chair and table is evidence of their commitment and attention to detail. Every evening a pianist provides diners with live accompaniment.

The Persian hammam offers a different concept if relaxation, inspired by 1001 Arabian Nights. Indulge yourself with an oriental massage or a sauna.

After a day of relaxation and pampering, enjoy a coffee or tea in the tearoom.

The hotel has 12 conference rooms with a combined capacity of 650.

Each room has a complimentary minibar and wireless LAN internet access. Pay-per-view TV is also available in the rooms free of charge and European telephone calls are also free.
