Text description provided by architect.
The restored remains of the Rüsselsheim Fortress have become the new home of the city's municipal museum.
A new staircase leads the visitors to the upper floor where they reach the main exhibition room. A newly added rooflight supplies ample daylight.
Next to the historic natural stone masonry we added an oak floor.
Furthermore, we kept new structural elements in a simplistic white, while using dark gray painted steel for technical additions such as the elevator, doors and the main staircase.

The architectural design makes the old house a perfect host for the new exhibition.
