The House of Hanoverian Industry is the seat of the Hanover Industry Club and other associations in the Lower Saxony state capital Hanover . The building is located at Schiffgraben 36 in the Oststadt district of Hanover .

History and description

Today's House of the Hanoverian Industry is the successor to the House of Industry at Sophienstrasse 7, which was sold in the post-war period . About ten years later, the industrial association wanted to build a new domicile for the Hanoverian industrial associations and their events on their own property near the Hanover Chamber of Commerce and Industry . After an architecture competition in 1954, the plans by the architect Dieter Oesterlen received the competition award. In the construction period from 1955 to 1957, Friedrich Mehmel GmbH built a new office and event building as the new center of the Hanoverian industrialists. But as early as 1956, in addition to the industrial association, the Lower Saxony employers 'association and the metal employers' association were able to move into the new building opposite the IHK.

In 1983, to the left of the building, an extension building on the street side was added by the Association of Metal Industries in Lower Saxony.
