The Hohenzollern House is a monument and landmark of the city of Swakopmund in Namibia . The building was built between 1904 and 1906 in the historicizing neo -baroque style , initially for use as a hotel. For a long time, the “Hohenzollern Hotel” was suspected of running a secret brothel , but there was never any concrete evidence of this.
In 1972 the building was declared a National Monument. The Hohenzollernhaus is currently used for condominiums.
