Bauhaus Architecture Tour

Bauhaus building styles flourished in Tel Aviv and Israel during the 1930s, largely due to the influence of 17 Bauhaus students working locally as architects. While many think that Tel Aviv architecture is primarily gray concrete buildings, a closer look shows the design and influence of Germany’s Bauhaus styles. Often called the White City, Tel Aviv is home to the largest collection of buildings built in this style anywhere in the world. When touring the city, you can recognize the architectural style by its characteristic cubic right angles (though some have rounded corners and balconies), with smooth facades and open floor plans.
