Wilhelm-Marx-Haus, an office building erected in 1924. At that time, it was one of the first "skyscrapers" in Germany. It is only 187 ft. high though.


In 1924, Wilhelm-Marx-Haus was the highest building in Düsseldorf and the first one in Europe made of a reinforced concrete. It was built from 1922 - 1924 and is under monument protection. The building is named after the Düsseldorf mayor Wilhelm Marx, who was in office from 1899 - 1910.
