Architektur in Niederösterreich im 20. Jahrhundert nach Friedrich Achleitner
German
Friedrich Achleitners guide to architecture
This guide documents the architectural activities in Lower Austria, based on Friedrich Achleitners influential multi-volume Österreichische Architektur im 20. Jahrhundert (Austrian Architecture in the 20th Century). Achleitners unfinished work was continued by drawing on documents of his bequest.
This foundational volume presents the multifaceted architectural landscape of Lower Austria in the 20th century with approx. 2,300 buildings and projects, which are arranged both topographically and typologically. Not only prominent buildings, but also lesser-known examples are considered. The book includes essays on Achleitner, his primary research, the genesis of the architectural guide, and architecture in Lower Austria.
