AEG Turbinenhalle
Lonely Planet review for AEG Turbinenhalle
Peter Behrens (1868-1940) who is sometimes called the 'father of modern architecture' designed the 1929 Berolinahaus on Alexanderplatz (now a C&A clothing store), but his most accomplished structure is outside the centre: the 1909 AEG Turbinenhalle, an airy, functional and light-flooded ‘industrial cathedral’ with exposed structural beams. The building is considered an icon of early industrial architecture.
