Dortmunder U: A Landmark in the Eastern Ruhr
A Former Brewery Building Now a Center for the Arts and Creativity
The Dortmunder U, also known as the U-Turm, is a former brewery building in the city of Dortmund, Germany. Since 2010, it has served as a center for the arts and creativity.
The Dortmunder U is a cultural center with international appeal, a new landmark in the region, and a symbol of structural change. Today, as a place of commemoration of industrial culture, the Dortmunder U is one of the landmarks in the eastern Ruhr.
You can see it from afar, the golden U atop the tower once used for beer storage by the now-defunct Union Brauerei. The Dortmunder U is a reminder of the city's industrial past and a symbol of its cultural present.
