Things to see and do Dessau

The Bauhaus area is located in the south of the city, where 314 individual residential houses were built between 1926 and 1928 according to the Bauhaus principles. Whatever the aesthetic of the genre, we will be at the sources of contemporary architecture in Europe. A leaflet can be purchased at the museum retraçant the history of the houses and guiding the visitor in the neighbourhood. Moreover, it is far from being muséifié, and one can see many of these abandoned homes, a legacy of neglect of the communist regime and the loss of vitality of Dessau after reunification.
