The most important buildings of the most influential architectural school of the 20th century in magnificent photographs. Even 100 years after its founding, the Bauhaus World Heritage Site has lost none of its fascination. The photographs by architectural photographer Hans Engels in this volume present a selection of famous and lesser-known buildings by Bauhaus architects such as Walter Gropius, Marcel Breuer, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. The buildings are shown in chronological order from the founding in 1919 to the closure of the Bauhaus in 1933 in masterful photographs created especially for this volume. Informative texts by Axel Tilch complement the photographs with valuable information on the history of the buildings. Readers are presented with a broad panorama of Bauhaus architecture, today undisputedly the most important school of architecture, design, and art of the 20th century.
