The Hochhaus an der Weberwiese (literally "high house on the weaver's meadow") is a residential building in Berlin, located in the district of Friedrichshain. Built as part of the plan for post-war reconstruction, was the first example of socialist classicism in the German Democratic Republic. == History == The construction of a "high house" in the garden of Weberwiese was decided as part of the reconstruction plan of the district of Friedrichshain, devastated by the bombings of World War II. The overall design of the new complex was laid by Hans Scharoun, who also personally executed some buildings, taking up the style of the "new objectivity", typical of the twenties and thirties. This choice, however, was strongly criticized at the political level: the government of the newly formed GDR in fact preferred to direct the reconstruction following the principles of socialist classicism, typical of the Soviet of those years, advocating a return to "national traditions". Therefore, the draft of the "high house", written by Hermann Henselmann in the functionalist style, was completely redesigned, adopting a neoclassical style going back to Schinkel's buildings of the nineteenth century. Built from 1951 to 1952, the "high house" rose to the symbol of the reconstruction a symbol of reconstruction in the GDR, and came to be a model for similar interventions in Berlin and other cities of the Republic. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hochhaus an der Weberwiese」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
