Origin and history

The former Neunreiter shop, located at 7 rue de l'Abreuvoir in Strasbourg, is an iconic building built between the 19th and 20th centuries. It was originally designed as a commercial and residential complex by Eugène Neunreiter, founder of glass and porcelain establishments of the same name. The main building, made of brick with a cast iron structure, presents an L-shaped plan and windows on courtyard, optimizing space for commercial activities.

Eugene Neunreiter acquired the property in 1878, on the edge of the old town and the former military citadel. The plans date back to 1898, and an extension was added in 1923. From 1957 the premises were rented to various signs, with partial alterations, including demolition in 1977. The Centre Européen d'Actions Artistiques Contemporaines (CEAAC) was established in 1995 after a renovation by architect Eric Gauthier.

The building has been listed for historical monuments since 2015 for its characteristic industrial architecture, including the store, courtyard, street building and gate. Architects Ferdinand Kalweit and painter Adolf Zilly contributed to his design. Today, it combines historical heritage and cultural dynamism, hosting contemporary exhibitions and artistic events.
