Germany

🎧 Listen to Introduction

Between 1919 and 1933, the Bauhaus movement revolutionized architectural and aesthetic thought and practice in the 20th century. The Bauhaus buildings in Weimar, Dessau and Bernau are fundamental representatives of classical modernism, which aimed to revolutionize architecture and design. Inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1996, the site originally included buildings in Weimar (former Art School, School of Applied Arts and Haus Am Horn) and Dessau (Bauhaus Building, a group of seven master residences). The 2017 extension includes the Houses with Balconies in Dessau and the ADGB Trade Union School in Bernau, which are important contributions to the Bauhaus's philosophy of austere design, functionalism and social reform.
