Bauhaus Archive

Great one-room exhibition of origins of Bauhaus movement. If you are interested in understanding the modern art a bit better this is a great opportunity ( do get an audio guide). The collection rotates on weekly/monthly basis, so each time you are visiting, you will see something different. The place is surrounded by great green spot by the river, so it's perfect for chilling outside plus there is a coffee shop. Ticket is only €8 + €20 deposit ( that you will get back at the end ) for audio guide. Absolutely worth seeing / visiting if you are architecture / design / art enthusiast.

Unfortunately the museum was closed when I visited. A pity, since I read good reviews about the exhibition. However, I also wanted to see this Walter Gropius building. After all he is the founder of Bauhaus. It is not a very typical Bauhaus style building. It is white, and has some of the round and square elements in it, but it was one of his last designs (implemented by someone else, maybe that explains the not-so-typical look).

I guess the building has seen better days, so hopefully this whole construction period will restore this landmark building.

The exhibition is closed due to renovation/construction till summer, so check before you go. The shop and cafe are still open which you may want to buy a few things (great designs)

Great exhibition! The story of BAUHAUS and the influence it had on design. Easy to relate to, the common household objects and the design stories behind them. They also have activities in the courtyard and it brings everything to life. Some basic architecture / design history knowledge may be required to fully understand the exhibits. I recommend!

I'm a big fan of Bauhaus design, so I definitely had to check this out. There are some interesting things, but it's on the smaller side. I'd probably get the headphones if I could do it again. The gift shop has some really interesting stuff.

Museum is currently closed for renovation in preparation for 100 year anniversary next year 2019. Walking around the open areas are definitely worth it though!

Because I could not able to stay more,y impression won't be high but I think there are a lot more than I could get.
Outside simple container like small house was very interesting object. And the message "re-use" gave me good concept.
