Founded in Weimar in 1919, it moved to Dessau in 1925 and was forced to close in Berlin by the National Socialists in 1933, the Bauhaus existed for only 14 years. Nevertheless, the famous university of design wrote history, stands for Made in Germany, and provides important stimuli and impulses to questions of the present.

The Bauhaus buildings in Weimar, Dessau and Bernau are fundamental representatives of Classical Modernism, directed towards a radical renewal of architecture and design.The cubic buildings document the quest for building typification by using identical elements coupled with the highest architectural quality.

This house built in 1926 is part of the Meisterhaus ensemble and, together with the other master houses, has belonged to the Bauhaus UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996.
