The forgotten master builder – Krubsacius and the Dresden country house
Coffee klatch in the city museum
Friedrich August Krubsacius (1718-1789) was a court architect, the first professor of architecture at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts and later also a senior master builder. Respected and well-known at the time, his life and work have almost been forgotten today. However, a significant example of his architecture still exists in Dresden: the former "Land- und Steuerhaus" - now home to the City Museum and the Dresden Municipal Gallery. Let us tell you about the life and work of the master builder, his architectural works and the chequered fate of the "Landhaus".
- With Lutz Reike, Museums of the City of Dresden
- Admission: €15 incl. a piece of cake and coffee (€5 with Dresden Pass)
- Please book in good time online or by calling the visitor service of the Museums of the City of Dresden on 0351 488 7272 (MO - FR).

Training in the special exhibition
"Slab East / West. Living and building in large panel construction"
The special exhibition at the Dresden City Museum is dedicated to the industrially manufactured prefabricated buildings that still characterise the appearance of many major German cities today.
Using selected examples, the exhibition traces the development of industrial housing construction from 1900 to the present day. It shows the similarities and differences in East and West and presents the potentials and limitations of the technology.
Questions about housing are at the centre of the show. A wide range of exhibits such as furniture, furnishings and photographs, as well as autobiographical audio and video contributions, provide answers to the questions: Who were prefabricated flats built for? How much living space was available and how was it used? Who lives in prefabricated housing today? How has living here changed?
We will give you an exclusive tour of the exhibition and then present our educational programme for all grades.
With Dr Claudia Quiring (curator of the exhibition), Franziska Schmidt and Dr Robert Mund (education and outreach)
The training course is published under the event number EXT06089 in the online training catalogue on the Saxony School Portal.
