Did Jakob Sigle, envision the future of his shoe factory? He probably didn’t imagine the Salamanderareal as we see it today. The Salamanderareal stands before us as a testament to Kornwestheim’s industrial heritage. This former shoe factory, the heart of J. Sigle & Cie., founded in 1891, has evolved. The Salamanderareal isn’t just a historical site. It’s a vibrant hub. The original factory buildings, with their unique blend of Backsteingotik and Expressionist architecture, still stand. Imagine, in 1967, this very spot buzzed with 11,000 workers producing millions of shoes. The Salamander brand, once synonymous with Kornwestheim, moved its headquarters in 2008. Yet, the Salamanderareal lives on. Now, it houses a mix of retail outlets. You can find a Salamander factory outlet store, of course. There are also other clothing stores, offices, and even Baden-Württemberg’s central land registry archive. The Salamanderareal has been undergoing extensive renovations and expansions. New commercial and residential spaces are being integrated into the historical fabric. The revitalization aims to create a thriving mini-city, blending the old with the new. Look around. Can you envision the echoes of shoemakers past? Can you also sense the vibrant energy of the present? The Salamanderareal continues to transform, adapting to the times.
