Germany: Chilehaus

Yesterday I got two cards from Germany.

One of them shows the Chilehaus in Hamburg. The Chilehaus was built between 1922 and 1924 in the style of the Brick Expressionism. It is located in the Kontorhaus District. With its ten storeys it is one of Hamburg's first high-rise buildings. The Kontorhaus District with the Chilehaus and the Speicherstadt were added to the UNESCO World Heritage List earlier this month.
