These remarkable images – initially chosen by Goethe (1749–1832) for the Grand Duke of Saxe- Weimar-Eisenach and his own collection – offer a spec- tacular overview of the golden age of German drawing (approx. 1780–1850). In the late 18th century the city of Weimar, seat of the Dukes of Saxe-Weimar, was Germany’s intellectual hub. A key figure at this enlightened court, Goethe accumulated numerous posts of cultu- ral responsibility, in addition to writing most of his works there. Himself a knowledgeable collector and draughtsman, he built up for the Grand Duke a handsome collection representing every facet of German drawing.

  • Journey to Weimar
    Journey to Weimar Visitor Guide 2018 // 2019 BAUHAUS TURNS 100 – WEIMAR IS WHERE IS ALL STARTED Goethe and Schiller, Bach and Liszt, Modernism and Bauhaus. That's Wei- mar. The residence city with the great past and numerous famous people. Visitors are enchanted by the mixture of cultural hub, historical significance, and beautiful, old city with its cosmo- politan vibrancy and laid-back charm. The anniversary of Bauhaus will be celebrated in great style in 2019–100 years after Walter Gropius founded the famous design school in Weimar. Important cultural epochs and Euro- pean history are palpably united in a compact space. UNESCO has granted the houses of the poets Goethe and Schiller, the parks and gardens, the magnificent castles, and the world-fa- mous Herzogin Anna Amalia library the status of World Heritage Sites. Bauhaus is also immortalised in this part of the world's memory. Every year, millions of visitors come to the city just to explore this ensemble.

  • 16 Integrating New Functions Into the Historic Herzogin Anna Amalia Bibliothek 243 Damage
    Michael Knoche, Hilde Barz-Malfatti † and Karl-Heinz Schmitz 16 Integrating New Functions into the Historic Herzogin Anna Amalia Bibliothek in Weimar, Germany Abstract: Despite a fire in the library, the Herzogin Anna Amalia Bibliothek in Weimar opened its extension in February 2005 on schedule. The new Study Centre covers an area five times larger than the corresponding rooms in the old library and offers readers 120,000 volumes on open access. The new underground stacks constructed at the same time offer good preservation storage conditions for up to one million volumes. It is a great advantage that an underground connection integrated the new build with the old and eliminated any potential division of the library. The new Book Cube with its clear geometry is the centre of the diversely proportioned group of buildings and a modern counterpart to the Rococo hall of the original green palace. The four internal walls of the Cube are designed as multi-storey bookshelves with galleries above and below ground. A sequence of underground rooms connects the Cube to the historic library building. It has been possible to create an integrated entity combining the new and the old, not by imitation, but by treating the whole ensemble.
