Mauerwerk - European Journal of Masonry 01/16

This issue is the Proceeding of the German Masonry Congress on the 19^th and 20^th of January in Darmstadt.

Cover Story: The Darmstadt Artists' Colony on the Mathildenhöhe with its buildings, public gardens, and works of art is a unique ensemble of experimental creation. It is an extraordinary document of the transition from Art Nouveau to Modernism in architecture, fine and applied arts, inspired by the International Reform Movement at the beginning of the 20^th century. (s. p. 90 a. 91)
