V-Collections - Gems of Design

Germany

The architecture of Germany has a long, rich and diverse history. Every major European style from Roman to Post Modern is demonstrated, including renowned examples of Carolingian,Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, Classical and Modern architecture.
Centuries of fragmentation of Germany into principalities and kingdoms caused a great regional diversity and favored vernacular architecture. This made for a heterogeneous and diverse architectural style, with architecture differing from town to town. While this diversity may still be witnessed in small towns, the devastation of architectural heritage in the larger cities during World War II resulted in extensive rebuilding characterized by simple modernist architecture.
