Modern Brandenburg architecture was overshadowed for a long time by that of Berlin. An architectual tour outside the metropolis leads to great buildings as the region was during the Weimar Republic one of the most important places for German avantgarde architecture. This guide reveals the architectural highlights and unknown buildings, providing views of special attractions and the day to day along the way.
The richly illustrated book is not just useful as a reading and refernce aid. Above all, it should serve as an incentive to discover or revisit a rich architectural heritage of the 1920s and 30s which has too often been left to deteriorate.
