Art Fabrik & Hotel - Hotel Wuppertal, Germany

Exterior

Presentation

The building, which today houses the Art Fabrik Hotel, was once a factory which belonged to the family of Friedrich Engels. It is said that Friedrich Engels supported Karl Marx financially with money which was made from the factory so that Marx could finish working on the famous communist manifest.A few years ago Roswitha and Erich Bethe put an unusual concept into practice – one that would see the former factory transformed into an art hotel whose income could support 6 childrens’ hospices as well as the Bethe Foundation and provide a platform for local artists.You shouldn’t miss the famous suspension railway, even more known since Tuffi, the elephant, jumped out. He is doing well. We although recommend you the Heydt-museum, the zoo and the adventure bath Bergische Sonne as well as a climbing centre 300 m away from the hotel.
