Starting with the First Goetheanum as a double-domed structure, a series of residential and functional buildings were built between 1914 and 1924. They derived their form from their respective functions and location relative to the main building. Through these ancillary buildings, Rudolf Steiner architecturally expressed the idea of metamorphosis. Just as the diversity of nature develops from a primal motif, the ancillary buildings emerged from the First Goetheanum and form an organic connection. They can therefore be understood as a further development of the double-domed main building.

It is impressive that the Goetheanum and its accompanying buildings, the "Glass House" and the "Heating House", were built in 1924, despite their spectacularly modern exteriors. The Goetheanum has a cafeteria and a garden terrace in the summer.
The interior is partly open to the public. There are four themed trails around the Goetheanum that bring visitors closer to the unique architecture of its spiritual founding father, Rudolf Steiner.
