Amazing concept if you think how old the houses are. It was a groundbreaking concept and architecture plus interior design all together. And fortunately there are many houses still intact. In fact people are living in them, exactly what they are built for o).Some houses i.e the one designed by Walter Gropius got destroyed in WW2. A must is to see the Le Corbusier designed house, which houses the museum as well.I try to visit the Weissenhof Siedlung every time i'm in Stuttgart - that says it all o)).
This semed like a great opportunity to see well known modernist architecture examples from many of the big names alongside each other. Sadly it's not quite up to that, with many building destroyed in the war, and only the Corbusier open, and not the most user friendly leaflet or layout. But well worth a visit if you have any interest in comparing square box architects. Some of the details inside the Corbusier house are memorable and distinctive.
If you're interested in architecture you should definetly go there: all the famous members of the Bauhaus group built houses on one of the hills surrounding Stuttgart. You may also want to visit the Killesber Park which is just round the corner.
Weissenhofsiedlung (Weissenhof Estate) is an excellent example of modern residential architecture. We walked around the neighborhood in 45 minutes and very much enjoyed seeing the variety of architects works. The neighborhood was quiet and we were able to view it without other tourists around (December). Homes are occupied but be sure to take the walk path that goes between backyards. It is public access. There was a convenient subway stop right there although the trains were not quite as frequent as the downtown area. We went when the museum was closed so did not see it. We also noticed the neighborhood was next to the park with the tower that overlooks the city. Had we had more time, we would have stopped there too.
It was fun walking around the truly unique neighborhood built by various architects. We went to the museum first to get a background on the competition for building the homes. It's good that this unique area was not torn down as was threathened at one point.We enjoyed doing something a little different as part of our trip to Stuttgart.
Great area to visit if you are an architect or an architecture lover. Just walk around the houses and buildings, it's so interesting to see that, even though they were built so long ago, they look so contemporary and vivid, there are actually people that live there. For architects or architecture students from around the world it is gratifying to be in contact with these places we've only seen in books. The small museum at Le Corbusier house was a bit poor and all in german.
If you are not interesting in architecture, it would be a bit strange museum for you. But it is really nice view from the top floor :) and actually house is pretty nice
A Cultural Heritage! All the famous Bauhaus architects left their mark. It's free to walk around and there is a Corbussier-biuilding with original furniture and a museum. Moderate entrance fee.
No point going there if you have no interest in architecture and/or have no prior knowledge of these buildings and their architects. Seriously, if you're an architecture student and do not know what the Weissenhofsiedlung is, start researching. Ironically, I didn't enjoy the one museum that was accessible (Le Corbusier's) so much as I did enjoy the ones I couldn't access (aka all the rest). I think sometimes a building's worth needs to be tested in use and I'm glad that these buildings are active, not abandoned and how maybe, yes, the state protects them or whatever, but ultimately, if they are good, practical buildings like their architects have claimed over and over, then those people will maintain them and that's the case! People live in a Mies Van der Rohe creation, you can see their laundry line, their mismatched curtains and this disillusionment is the best part! This is architecture beyond the initial brand of a starchitect; this is daily use!So yeah, go there! walk around, see beyond what you've read of the place; it's fun to be crossed in your expectations sometimes.
A walk through Bauhaus architectural history. There are info signs posted everywhere - so a self-guided walk is ok (the museum was closed. Being on a steep hill side - there are great views of Stuttgart as well.
Architecture is not normally a subject which interests me, but my companion had this on a list and I must say the museum was very interesting. For once, the english translation to the plentiful information notices was excellent, and actually made me able to appreciate the whole experience far more. A walk around the project, again with well translated information boards, was fascinating.
Weissenhofsiedlung is unique, because it is architecture of the 20s still surprising you, which ideas these architects had nearly 100 years ago. Additionally it is not a museum, it is a part of the town where people live nad work.
It was interesting to see the remaining homes and the fact that people are living in them.The museum was just all right. It was heavy on information and light on presentation. The best part of the museum was the view from the roof terrace.
A couple of houses built in 1927 by several famous architect of that time: Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, J.J.P. Oud and others. The Corbusier house can be visited, and has a small exhibition.
Weissenhofsiedlung are buildings designed by world-famous architects for a 1927 international architectural meeting. A number of the buildings still exist and one houses a small museum dealing with this topic.
