34 - Jahns-Regulatoren-Fabrik

Founded in 1905, the rapidly expanding company manufactured regulators for power machines and moved into a new building complex on Sprendlinger Landstraße as early as 1913.
When designing the two-storey administration building with its protruding central section and flat triangular gable, architect Wilhelm Otto Friedrich Bossert was inspired by late Baroque country house architecture, Classicism and the formal sense of late Art Nouveau. The latter is manifested in the relief above the entrance. However, modern building materials such as reinforced concrete were used. Behind the administration building were the flat factory buildings with shed roofs. As with other Offenbach companies, forced laborers were housed on the company premises during the Second World War.
