History

In the Middle Ages this site was one of the city's exits. The yellow and black fortress designed by the Italian Alessandro Mendini, which contrasts with the brick building, the Anzeiger-Hochhaus received. The tram and busstop looks like a modern castle, is part of an internationally acclaimed street design project with the theme 'Bus Stops', initiated by the traffic department. Today Anzeiger-Hochhaus is part of a media center and was built by the architect Fritz Höger in 1928 for the publisher August Madsack and the former 'Hannoverschen Anzeiger' paper.
