Hans-Sachs-Haus

The Hans-Sachs-Haus (HSH) is a landmark building in Gelsenkirchen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, constructed between 1924 and 1927.

Named after the Meistersinger Hans Sachs, the building was designed by Essen-based architect Alfred Fischer.

The outside of the modernist building represents Brick Expressionism, New Objectivity (German: Neue Sachlichkeit) and Streamline Moderne, as well as Bauhaus influences which also characterize its interior.
