Citrohan House, Modernist single-family house in Stuttgart-Nord, Germany
The Citrohan House is a modern residential building in Stuttgart-Nord built in 1927 that stands out for its functional design. The interior is characterized by flexible walls, movable furnishings, and extensive glazing that bring flexibility and natural light into every area.
Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret created this housing prototype in 1927 as part of the Weissenhof Exhibition to demonstrate new residential concepts. The project became a turning point in the development of modern housing in the 20th century.
The house shows how people in the 1920s wanted to live differently. Open rooms and large windows were meant to simplify daily life and bring more light into the home.
The building has functioned as a museum since 2002 and displays the spatial concepts of that era. Visitors should allow enough time to understand the interior details and the functional arrangement of the rooms.
The house was originally planned as a temporary pavilion for the exhibition but its success led to permanent preservation. Today it is part of a group of 12 buildings together protected by UNESCO as a heritage site.
