Hubert - Olympic Park and Sports Facilities of the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich (Bavaria) it sounds like a hot candidate...
- TV Tower Stuttgart (Baden-Württemberg), the first TV tower built from reinforced concrete I like CN Tower in Toronto more, and... TWHS Ještěd tower in Czechia is more elegant!
- Görlitz - an architectural ensemble on the Via Regia (Saxony) postponed in 2014, probably the best-preserved historic town centre in Germany, special feature being the historic Hallenhäuser (merchants' houses). Though nice historical town, one of my favorite in Germany, I cannot see any OUV. "Hallenhäuser" are not such unique. There are plenty of them in town Jihlava, Czechia (somewhere between Praha and Brno), and I visited one nice example also in Vipiteno/Sterzing in Alto Adige. The reason the houses were constructed was the lack of daylight withing large merchant houses built on narrow medieval plot. Is this enough for WHS?? Probably not!
- Karl-Marx-Allee and Interbau 1957. Architecture and Urbanism of Post-World War II Modernism (Berlin), two residential areas as comparison between the styles in East and West, the list of architects of the Hansaviertel is like the who's who of the famous architects of this period I visited a friend, who rented a flat in Karl-Marx-Allee a couple of years ago, not too bad! However, Hansaviertel never looked appealing for me, but should explore more in detail next time in Berlin... Anyway, it may have a potential
Not included here, but confirmed: Herrnhut Moravian Church and Berthelsdorf Castle as part of a transnational extension of the Christiansfeld WHS Yes, this is hot candidate for reasonable extension. I have been there, have not been impressed too much, but still this should not dilute OUV of Christiansfeld
Nan As a German resident being well travelled in Germany, I am astounded at the many places I still don't know about. It seems that the state party of Germany is now searching very deep in the bag... I would not be surprised, if Dresden is miraculously found there :)) |
