This is where the numerous international guests will begin their visit to the Weissenhof Estate and the Weissenhof Museum from 2027. The city of Stuttgart organised a Europe-wide building construction competition for the new building. In June 2024, the design by the BarkowLeibinger Architekten\/Zech Hochbau bidding consortium was chosen as the winner.<\/p>\n<p>This design, as well as nine other entries, are now on display at the Stadtpalais &#8211; Museum f\u00fcr Stuttgart. Visitors can get an idea of the submitted project concepts using plans and visualisations. The first three places are also presented in concrete form in large models.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Background<\/strong><br \/>\nIn 2027, the Weissenhof Estate will celebrate its 100th birthday. This was the initial spark to bring another major building exhibition to Stuttgart with the IBA&#8217;27.<\/p>\n<p>Whether they come for the celebrations to mark the 100th anniversary of the estate, for the IBA or in the years thereafter, a visit to the Weissenhof Estate and the Weissenhof Museum forms the centrepiece of the Stuttgart experience for many international guests.<\/p>\n<p>The new building will help preserve semi-detached house of Le Corbusier, which has been awarded the UNESCO World Heritage seal and houses the Weissenhof Museum. The BIZ will take over many of the museum functions such as ticket sales, cloakroom, caf\u00e9 and bookshop. Le Corbusier&#8217;s building was planned as a residential building and is not designed for these functions in the long term, and with ever-increasing visitor numbers.<\/p>\n<p>The historic semi-detached house will thus be preserved for future generations and, as the only accessible building on the estate, can still remain the central highlight.<\/p>\n<p>The Association Friends of the Weissenhof Estate has been committed to the preservation, future and communication of the Weissenhof Estate since it was founded in 1977. It was pivotal in ensuring that Le Corbusier&#8217;s semi-detached house is the only building in the Weissenhof Estate that is accessible today, and since 2006 the association has been running the Weissenhof Museum in the Le Corbusier House on behalf of the City of Stuttgart. From 2027, the visitor and information centre will be run by the Friends of the Weissenhof Estate in cooperation with Stadtpalais &#8211; Museum f\u00fcr Stuttgart.<\/p>\n<p>A competition is currently underway for the scenography of the new permanent exhibition in the visitor and information centre and the tour of the estate. On 27 November 2024 the designs will be presented to the jury and the winning concept selected.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening<\/strong><br \/>\nWednesday, 9 October 2024, 7 pm<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venue<\/strong><br \/>\nStadtpalais &#8211; Museum for Stuttgart, Foyer<br \/>\nKonrad-Adenauer-Stra\u00dfe 2, 70193 Stuttgart<\/p>\n<p><strong>Welcoming address<br \/>\n<\/strong>N.N.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Exhibition<\/strong><br \/>\nTuesday 8 October &#8211; Sunday 20 October 2024<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening hours<\/strong><br \/>\nTue &#8211; Sun 10 am &#8211; 6 pm, Fri until 9 pm<\/p>\n<p><strong>Free admission<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Organiser<\/strong><br \/>\nCity of Stuttgart, Weissenhofmuseum im Haus Le Corbusier\/Freunde der Weissenhofsiedlung e.V. &amp; Stadtpalais Museum f\u00fcr Stuttgart, IBA&#8217;27<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sorry, this entry is only available in Deutsch.","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2926","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-allgemein"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/weissenhofmuseum.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2926","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/weissenhofmuseum.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/weissenhofmuseum.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/weissenhofmuseum.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/weissenhofmuseum.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2926"}],"version-history":[{"count":24,"href":"https:\/\/weissenhofmuseum.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2926\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3122,"href":"https:\/\/weissenhofmuseum.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2926\/revisions\/3122"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/weissenhofmuseum.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2926"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/weissenhofmuseum.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2926"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/weissenhofmuseum.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2926"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
