The Bauhaus Museum Dessau is a house within a house - a seemingly floating bar of concrete in a glass shell. The collection of the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation and temporary exhibitions are presented here.
The permanent exhibition at the Bauhaus Museum Dessau tells the story of the famous school in Dessau with over 1000 exhibits. It describes the Bauhaus as a lively place where people learned and taught, experimented artistically and worked on industrial prototypes.
With around 49,000 objects, the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation's collection is the second largest and at the same time one of the youngest collections on the Bauhaus worldwide: the first purchase was made in 1976 in the former GDR, in the course of the reopening of the Bauhaus Dessau as a scientific and cultural center. Since then, it has grown steadily. Above all, student works, notes from lessons, designs and prototypes from the workshops characterize its profile.
In addition to the permanent exhibition, you can also look forward to interesting temporary exhibitions, events and workshops at the Bauhaus Museum Dessau!
