List of German-language historical architecture magazines

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of German-language historical architecture magazines gives an overview of the large number of periodicals on architecture and related areas that have appeared in the German-speaking area since the early days .

Architectural Review (1885)

Forerunners were panels of steel engravings , which appeared towards the end of the 18th century and could be obtained by subscription. The editorial part was limited i. d. Usually a few explanations of the tables.

Around 1880 it became possible to print photographs , and numerous formats with a regional to international focus were established up until the First World War . In terms of content, the focus was primarily on upper-class villas and state representative buildings. The boards were initially stapled separately; the editorial section, which often contained discussions of an aesthetic and stylistic nature, was accompanied by an appendix with advertisements, floor plans and technical articles. The print and paper quality were often excellent.

With the outbreak of the First World War, construction work came to a standstill; this was expressed in the greatly reduced number of publications. At the time of the Weimar Republic , in the course of the burgeoning modernity, the topics shifted to small houses and housing developments.

The Second World War marked a further turning point in the development, first emergency editions appeared, many magazines were discontinued, other titles were consolidated. A few photo series with color photos have been published since the late 1960s; they did not become more widespread until the mid-1980s.
