The Triennial continues ...

Statements by the organisers

The Triennial of the Modernism was launched in 2013. Since then, every three years, the context and architectural heritage of Modernism has been brought into the focus of a broad public through a variety of programmes. In the documentation of the final conference in 2019, the organisers report on why and how the format is to be continued and further developed as a Germany- and Europe-wide network of cities with a rich architectural heritage of the Modernism .

Voices on Triennial of Modernism 2019

The event format Triennial of Modernism , which emerged in 2013 from a cooperation between the cities of Weimar, Dessau and Berlin, is to be continued. This is the clear vote of the partners, which was determined and decided at the final conference in Berlin on 10 December 2019. The test phase of three event years decided upon at the founding was generally considered a success and the cooperation with partner cities in Germany and abroad was also confirmed. The film documentation of the internal final conference 2019 reflects the moods of the organisers.

English summary

Please note: the Triennial will continue and become more international: Until 2019 the Triennial of Modernism was mainly focussing on a local and German-speaking audience. For 2022 we are planning to reach out for a more international programme and launch the "European Triennial of Modernism". Learn more about this issue in our English summary.
