Architekturgalerie am Weißenhof

Architekturgalerie am Weißenhof occupies a ground-floor apartment in a terraced house at Stuttgart’s Weißenhofsiedlung. You enter a former model home within a historic ensemble shaped by Peter Behrens in 1927. The setting belongs to the internationally renowned Werkbundsiedlung and remains publicly accessible.

Founded in 1982 by Stuttgart architects and the BDA Baden-Württemberg, the gallery ranks among Europe’s oldest architecture galleries. Its exhibitions bring contemporary architecture and urban planning into conversation with recent architectural history. Lectures and symposia extend this discussion beyond the display spaces, welcoming professionals and the wider public. The programme connects current building culture with critical reflection and carefully presented architectural ideas.

Cooperation with the State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart, the Stuttgart City Museum, and the University of Stuttgart deepens that exchange. The gallery also works with the Weissenhof Museum in the Le Corbusier House and the Weissenhof Workshop in the Mies van der Rohe House. Its most distinctive detail is the address itself: architectural debate unfolds inside a 1927 house designed as a model for modern living.
