About this book
Chosen as the 2016 European Cultural Capital, Wrocław (named Breslau prior to 1945) is a shining center of modern architecture. In the first decades of the 20th century, renowned architects made plans for Breslau, including Max Berg, Hans Poelzig, Ernst May, Erich Mendelsohn, Hans Scharoun, and during the Nazi period, Werner March. The volume is the first collection devoted to the architectural history of that period.
- Offers the first comprehensive presentation of reform attempts from 1900 through the gigantomania of the Nazi era
