Haimhausen awakens castle brewery: New life in the old walls!

After long years of standstill and uncertainty, the old castle brewery in Haimhausen is finally taking on a new form. The area was an abandoned industrial wasteland for almost six years, but that changes quickly. In its last meeting on Thursday, the municipal council unanimously approved the urban planning concept of investor Max von Bredow building culture. This laid the foundation stone for the revitalization of a striking part of the place, which will not only accommodate living space, but also office space, commercial units, a café and a retirement home on 15,500 square meters.

What makes this plan special is the sensitive handling of the existing listed buildings. The brewhouse, which goes back to the 18th century, and the Klause from the late 17th century are not only historical symbols, but should now also become part of the new use. Max von Bredow emphasized how important it is that life comes back on the site and with regard to the monuments in need of renovation, it will be a challenge to integrate it well into the new concept. The renovation requires considerable investments, but local politics is convinced of the developers' ideas. Alte-schlossbrauerei-haimhausen.de emphasizes that ...

A new neighborhood is created

The new concept not only provides for the aging structure, but also the creation of a well thought-out living and working environment. Ten additional buildings with two to three floors are built, and a footpath is created that connects the historic village center with the main street. It is particularly important that cars are not intended in the neighborhood, which should ensure a pleasant, village atmosphere. Architect Andreas Ferstl was based on the planning on the typical designs of the region, so that the district is visually integrated into the environment.

28 above -ground parking spaces for visitors are planned, while the other parking spaces are accommodated in an underground car park. The exact number of the required parking spaces will depend on the number of apartments that are finally implemented. The development plan could be completed in 2026, at the latest in 2027 the demolition of the not listed halls begins. Denk-mal- industrie.de explains that ...

a place for the community

The Haimhausen culture already plans to use the revitalized rooms in the listed buildings for events. A temporary use is voted with the investor, which should offer the community again as quickly as possible. The information evening on July 3 and the cultural association party on July 7th on the brewery area are initial opportunities to include the population in the plans and to present ideas for the new district.

The revitalization of industrial mealers such as the old castle brewery is not only an economic opportunity, but also preserves a piece of history and culture. The local communities play a crucial role when it comes to shaping this change. The goal is clear: historical rooms will soon be filled with life and create a place of encounter and creativity. Haimhausen has the chance to keep his identity and look into the future at the same time.
