Apartments close to the center on the brewery area

October 2020

Five new buildings are to transform the Müller brewery area into a modern part of the city. The design plan was approved by the government council last year. The client expects to be able to submit the first planning applications in autumn 2020.

The premises of the H. Müller AG brewery and the Burger heirs are directly adjacent to the Baden train station and are within walking distance of Baden's old town. Beer has been brewed on the site since 1897. Today the areas are densely built with commercial uses. The brewery H. Müller AG intends to build the centrally located company
to develop the area and to make better use of it. The area to be built corresponds to the size of a football field. Five multi-storey buildings with 145 apartments are planned, offering space for around 250 people as well as various commercial spaces and services. Plots A, B, C and E are in the planning phase. The brewery garden and beer production will be retained. Likewise the malt silo, the boiler and brewhouse, which are classified as historical. A beer hall is to be built next to it. The logistics, operation and administration of the brewery are outsourced to Lupfig. Otherwise the area will appear almost completely new.

Apartments close to the center
In addition, the Burger Heirs are planning an increase in the building adjoining the brewery garden to the south. The realization of apartments close to the center as well as the preservation of the brewery garden and the new connection through the future Brauereigasse were essential public interests, for which the city was committed. For the implementation of an overall project that was convincing in terms of urban planning, architecture and marketability, the preliminary work was ultimately transferred to the present design plan. The builders – the H. Müller AG brewery and the Burger heirs – expect that the first planning applications can be submitted in the course of autumn 2020. ■
