The Dortberghaus is a listed office building in downtown Dortmund .

The Dortberghaus was built in the years 1937–1938 according to the plans of the Cologne architect Emil Rudolf Mewes as the administration building of the Gelsenkirchener Bergwerk AG (Dortmund Group) . The building is located in the immediate vicinity of Dortmund's main train station and south of the Katharinentreppe behind the Dortmund city and state library .

In 1936 the Gelsenkirchener Bergwerks-AG announced an architectural competition for the construction of the building, which Emil Rudolf Mewes won. Due to the beginning of the Second World War, the U-shaped building could not be completely completed.

His names still used today received the building after the abbreviated where mountain called Dortmunder Bergbau AG , which in 1953 from the former group Dortmund Gelsenkirchen mine-AG was formed.

The Dortmund city administration later used the building as a building regulation and land registry office .

In 2004 the building was cleared by the city administration. Since then, the Dortberghaus has been waiting for a new use. A conversion to a hotel is planned.

The Dortberghaus is registered as a monument in the list of monuments of the city of Dortmund and part of the route of industrial culture .
