Teepot (Teapot), Rostock
The Teapot stands out for its architectural style known as "Hypar shell architecture." This innovative design was created by civil engineer Ulrich Müther from Binz. The tea pavilion was originally constructed in 1927/28, but it faced unfortunate destruction by fire in 1945.
In 1968, the tea pavilion was rebuilt with a playful and imaginative twist. This whimsical redesign gave the building its iconic appearance and earned it the nickname "Teepot." Due to its exceptional and distinctive roof construction, the Teepot was recognized as a listed building.
In 2002, the Teepot underwent a renovation, ensuring its preservation and functionality for future generations. Since then, it has been transformed into a gastronomic venue, offering a variety of dining and refreshment options.
