A journey through the centuries

Universities have deeply inscribed themselves in European history. Berlin‘s universities play a unique role in this context – and yet in many respects they conform to a European pattern. Originally buildings of the Academy of Sciences and the Charité, then, from the early 19th century to the present day, universities have had a deci­sive influence on the appearance of the city.

  • The roots of Berlin’s oldest university, today’s Humboldt University, date back to the middle of the 18th century. So Berlin’s architectures of science combine representativeness and functionality, they tell of self-confidence and power, of hubris, destruction, and a new beginning, and they show how a rich tradition can be preserved and new works created at the same time.

     

  • Together with the Humboldt University, our team created a website, which marks the Milestones of of Berlins architecture in history. You are welcome to check out the result here.
