The successful metamorphosis

There are now exciting exhibitions about the lives of Hungarian factory workers in Chemnitz during the time of the former East Germany (GDR). They lived in a 14-storey prefabricated building that the people of Chemnitz called the “Paprikaturm”. Today, it is an example of a perfect transformation in architectural terms: Tiny flats have been turned into 30-square-metre luxury rooms. Guests from all over the world stay at the Residenz Hotel – and not just from Hungary.

Capital of Culture 2025

The “Smac” underscores the point that archaeology does not have to mean dusty old relics. The abbreviation stands for Staatliches Museum für Archäologie Chemnitz. It’s not only the exhibition that is exciting, but also the building itself. It used to be the “Kaufhaus Schocken”, a department store, built by the important architect Erich Mendelssohn. The Smac is just one of the few “must sees” in the “European Capital of Culture 2025”.

Training with a vision for the future

Humans tend to want to aim high. At the Residenz Hotel, nothing could be easier. Into the lift and up to the top floor. There you will find the sauna and the gym. While training, you will find Chemnitz at your feet. Beyond the town, the views eventually fade over the heights of the Ore Mountains. A special moment. You could also say: Wow!

The gift

In 2016, the Residenz Hotel underwent extensive renovation and redesign. With a new lounge. With pleasantly coloured checkered carpeting in the rooms. And with armchairs and lamps as design objects. Of course, the re-work also included modern bathrooms. When everything was ready, a regular guest appeared with a gift for the hotel. A piece of shower curtain, framed, signed by hand. He said: “The curtain always stuck to my skin when I showered.”
