Project

In the Kurpark of Bad Homburg, the pavilion at Louisenbrunnen was reinterpreted and erected as a modern steel structure. The basis for the design was a postcard from 1904.

The metal manufacturing company Velte constructed the approximately 14-meter-high pavilion with numerous individually manufactured components. To ensure the durable protection of the elaborately designed steel structure, ZINQ in Maintal took on the ecoZINQ spot-painting process. The chosen corrosion protection ensures the long-term durability of the structure and reduces the maintenance workload. Today, the pavilion stands again at its historic location in the Bad Homburg Kurpark.
