Fritz-Foerster-Bau, Heritage university building at TU Dresden, Germany

The Fritz-Foerster-Bau displays red brick facades with vertical pilasters and features a U-shaped layout connecting different parts of the university campus.

Built between 1922 and 1926 under architect Martin Dülfer's direction, the building initially served as the main facility for chemistry departments at TU Dresden.

The building's architecture combines neo-classical elements with reform-style features, represented in its triangular gables and geometric stained glass windows.

Following a renovation completed in 2023 costing 56.5 million euros, the building now houses 200 offices for 410 university staff and a lecture hall for 174 students.

The structure incorporates specialized design elements from the 1920s, including handcrafted lead glass windows influenced by geometric patterns.
