Bauhaus-Universität Weimar
Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, Public university in Weimar, Germany.
The Bauhaus University occupies several buildings in Weimar, including structures designed by Henry van de Velde with Art Nouveau architectural elements.
The institution originated in 1860 as the Grand Ducal Saxon Art School and transformed into the State Bauhaus in 1919 under Walter Gropius's direction.
The university maintains four faculties: Architecture and Urbanism, Art and Design, Civil Engineering, and Media, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration among students.
The university library contains 450,000 volumes across 5,000 square meters of space, serving 4,080 students from 70 different countries.
In 1996, the university buildings became part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site 'Bauhaus and its Sites in Weimar, Dessau and Bernau'.
