Description:
- The state of Nordrhein-Westfalen was founded in the Stahlhof in 1948. Dusseldorf's first administrative building was constructed in 1904 by Johannes Radtke by order of the steel association. The symmetrical edifice was built around two courtyards. The vertical line effect is effectuated by the powerful plastic structuring of the projection and reflection of the facade. Much of the entrance hall and stairwell has been constructed in marble. The magnificent paintings hanging on the walls depict scenes from steel manufacturing. This powerful structure now houses the Administrative Court.
