Reconstruction
At the beginning of the nineties extensive measures of preservation
and reconstruction of the Masters' Houses began with the renovation
of the Feininger House. (Commissioned by the city of Dessau). The
Kandinsky/Klee House was able to be reconstructed from 1999/2000 with
the generous help of the building firm HOCHTIEF based in Essen and
the Muche/Schlemmer House was able to be reconstructed from 2000/2001
with the help of the Wüstenrot Foundation.
Now the last two buildings which were destroyed, Walter Gropius' detached
house and Maholy-Nagy's half of Feininger's house are the topic of
discussions as to how they could be included into the complete ensemble.
In the autumn of 2002 the historical paths around the sites, the lawns
and the trees were re-landscaped under the framework of a monumental
objective.
Together with the Bauhaus building, the Masters' Houses ensemble was
included on the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List in 1996.
