Tips

Andrea und Huskys 🐺

July 14, 2023

An art project by the architects Brückner & Brückner from Tirschenreuth.

"Place of Encounter" attempts to use architectural means to address the tense relationship on the German-Czech border. Place and building complement each other. Two walls, one in stone, the other in wood. Larch wood from the Bohemian Forest, Flossenbürger granite from the Upper Palatinate. Green shimmering glass panels increasingly break up the walls towards the top. Left and right become East and West, Germany and the Czech Republic. The offset extensions of the two side walls indicate the further course of the border. A solid table with two chairs is the focal point in the center.

Unfortunately, the work of art from the year 2000 is not maintained, the weathering has started.
