Image description

Planned as a hotel in the 1970's but never finished, the so-called "Kaiserbau" near Cologne was detonated early on May 13, 2001. For 26 years it has been towering unused over the highway connecting Bonn and Cologne. More than 2,000 holes were drilled in the building for about 450 kg of explosives. The ruin recently became famous as a pop-art object called "Hotel Europa" after artist HA Schult installed several oversized portraits of famous people on the facade, which were taken down prior to the blast.
