New start on the site of the “Müllerbräu-Areal”

April 2024

Today's ground-breaking ceremony marks the start of the redevelopment of the "Müllerbräu-Areal". A modern, permeable neighbourhood will be created in a prime location in the heart of Baden by 2027. Under the motto "brew - live - enjoy", retail and office space as well as 136 flats are being created. And beer will still be brewed in the same place where Baden's brewing activities began in 1897. The building owner is the fourth-generation family business Brauerei H. Müller AG.

Today’s ground-breaking ceremony marks the start of the redevelopment of the “Müllerbräu-Areal” in the heart of Baden. By 2027, a modern district will be created there under the motto “brew – live – enjoy”. In addition to retail and office space, 136 flats will also be built. The traditional brewery H. Müller AG will continue to brew beer at this historic site, where Baden’s brewing activities began in 1897.

When the building permit is granted in October 2023, the ground-breaking ceremony today will mark the visible start of the transformation of the 8,000 square metre site. The new district next to Baden railway station will enhance the entire neighbourhood and have a positive impact on urban development.

The art of brewing remains an important part of Baden’s identity. The site design plan still envisages the popular Müllerbräu beer garden. From 2027, the classic Müllerbräu beers as well as specialities from the “Müller Bräu Handcrafted” line, which are already produced by master brewer Simon Neuhold, can be enjoyed there.

The fourth generation of the family business is investing a considerable sum in the double-digit millions in the new building project. It is possible that part of the development will be handed over to a partner. The construction phase will take around three years, during which the neighbours will be kept regularly informed of progress. The rental flats are expected to be advertised for rent from summer/autumn 2026 and ready for occupancy from summer 2027.
