history
Since the hotel rooms in Brühl were not enough for the onlookers during the emperor's visits to Augustusburg Palace, the Hotel Deutscher Kaiser was built in 1888 directly opposite the palace, on the site of the former electoral comedy house. The hotel was built with a dance hall and coffee garden. In 1919 the publisher of the Brühler Zeitung bought the building and set up a printing house in it , which existed until 1970. From 1981 the gallery at the castle of the Kreissparkasse Cologne was in the rooms. Today the building houses a shop and apartments.
