Project Description

Location

Rhein Triadem occupies a prime city-centre location in Cologne’s Altstadt-Nord district, directly on Konrad-Adenauer-Ufer and in the immediate vicinity of the Rhine promenade. The location combines a prestigious business address with a diverse urban infrastructure and a high-quality environment.

Cologne Central Station, Cologne Cathedral and the Rhine, as well as numerous restaurants, shops and service providers, are all within walking distance. Suburban rail and bus services can also be reached within a few minutes.

The property also offers excellent access by car. Konrad-Adenauer-Ufer and the surrounding road network provide quick connections to the city’s principal arterial routes. Cologne’s orbital motorway network is conveniently accessible via nearby junctions.

Building

Rhein Triadem represents a successful combination of prestigious historic architecture and contemporary office design. The complex comprises three distinctive elements: the historic Rhein Palais, the contemporary Atrium and the Riegel, which was also newly constructed in 2006.

Rhein Palais was built in 1910 and, with its prestigious period architecture, forms the representative centrepiece of the ensemble. Distinctive design features, including stucco detailing, marble finishes and generous floor-to-ceiling heights, create an impressive entrance and a distinctive working environment.

The contemporary Atrium and Riegel buildings complement the historic property with modern office architecture and functional building structures. Together, they form a distinctive office ensemble that combines the charm of a period property, contemporary workplaces and an exceptional location directly on the Rhine.

The property occupies a site of approximately 4,500 sq m and provides a total usable floor area of approximately 15,000 sq m. A total of 85 parking spaces are available to the building’s occupiers.

Use Concept

Rhein Triadem has been designed as a high-quality office ensemble. Its combination of different building structures provides a broad range of configuration options, supporting both traditional office layouts and contemporary open-plan working environments.

Within Rhein Palais, generous floor-to-ceiling heights, prestigious circulation areas and, in some areas, direct views of the Rhine create an exceptional spatial quality. The Atrium and Riegel buildings complement the ensemble with contemporary office accommodation, flexible floorplates and functional layouts.

All floors are conveniently accessible via staircases and lifts. Partitioning systems and doors can be adapted to meet individual occupier requirements, subject to agreement.

Rhein Triadem is particularly suited to companies, law firms, consultancies and professional services businesses seeking high-quality office accommodation at a prestigious address in a central riverside location in Cologne. The combination of historic architecture, contemporary office structures, a direct connection to the Rhine and comprehensive urban amenities creates ideal conditions for occupiers that value visibility, quality and a distinctive working environment.
