Sad that the iconic Bauhaus sign on the side of the building was under construction, but I'll just have to visit again. I included the Masters Houses on this visit, and thought they were much more interesting from the outside. Inside they were . . . nothing. Still. My love of the Bauhaus continues unabated.

The Bauhaus is a MUST for anyone who is a fan of architecture and design. I planned my trip to…read moreGermany mostly around art and the Bauhaus was on my list as a place to visit. I have been a fan of the Bauhaus ever since I was young. It was so surreal to walk the grounds and sleep in the Studio Building which is the former dormitory's of the students of the Bauhaus. I am a fan of Marianne Brandt as well as Gropius, Meyer, Moholy, Schlemmer, Breur the list goes on. It was an experience that I will never forget. I strongly suggest booking your reservations for the recycled hotel (boutique hotel) which is the Studio Building way in advance. There are only 20 rooms that can be rented. I would request one with the balcony. It took them some time to return my email regarding lodging. I actually had to phone them about it as well. They do not have a booking option on the website nor for the guided tours as well. You need to book your tour in English way in advance. It is 75 EURO which to me was well worth it. There is no wi-fi in the rooms. Just a simple room somewhat to that of how the students lived though I read a little different about the furniture in the students room and seen different pics as well. To stand on the balcony was amazing. My tour guide's name was Vincent. A lovely guy who is used to the run of the mill tourist who come to the Bauhaus because it is a landmark and part of the tour group they are in. So, for Vincent and I we had a great time. I knew a lot of the history so he shared more things with me. Like the famous stairs that were in Schlemmer's painting and the stage in which Schlemmer's plays were preformed on. Most famous one "triadic ballet". The mezzanine (canteen) is also part of the stage where the performances where held. There is just so much history here I would end up writing all day/night. The Bauhaus Cafe is great. I dined here twice. Then once at the Kornhaus restaurant another landmark of the Bauhaus. Be sure to visit the MEISTERHAUS DESSAU which is around the bend from the Bauhaus. This is where the Bauhaus Masters lived unfortunately the tours here are only in German. Buy your tickets to enter the haus's. Also just about a 15-20 min tram ride away is more architecture in Dessau that Gropius, Meyer and many others of the Bauhaus have built. That tour is in German only but I did it on my own. Took a lot of walking but whatever. I hired a cab to take me around. I strongly suggest dinning at the Kornhaus which sits on the Elbe River and has a great menu and outdoor patio with amazing service. I MISS GERMANY . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyhrMZB-WLo

The exhibit consists of 3 big rooms without a clear route so you can drift around. Recommended to book tickets in advance as they do sell out. The tickets are tied to a time but good for 59 mins after the time. It costs 5€ extra to take photos. Highly recommended to visit the museum as well as the Bauhaus school, master houses, and other Bauhaus buildings in the area. Having a car makes it easier but most places are walkable from the main train station.
