About us

The Upper Factory is an institution in the town of Zell am Harmersbach. With the renovation of the circular kiln, the Upper Factory area around the industrial monument is gradually being brought back to life.

In the past, the Upper Factory belonged to Zell Ceramics and comprised several buildings. In the future, the entire Upper Factory area with the existing buildings and areas will become an extended city centre and guarantee quality of stay and experience.

Our mission

Wir möchten die Zeller Geschichte und Historie der Zeller Keramik näherbringen. Unser Ziel ist es attraktive Veranstaltungsorte zu schaffen. Mit dem Areal Obere Fabrik möchten wir die Stadtmitte beleben – ein gesellschaftlicher Treffpunkt für alle.
