The million-dollar building was completed in 1914 after three years of construction. The 140.4 meter long and 21.4 meter high building received its name “Millionaire Building” from the people of Geislingen because the construction costs at the time exceeded one million Reichsmarks. The million-dollar building was one of the first reinforced concrete structures built for industrial use.
