Dessau may be a mere speck on the map, but the city of Bauhaus still occupies the most important place in the development of the New Building - otherwise known as the Neues Bauen - movement. The Garden Kingdom of Dessau Wörlitz ( Gartenreich Dessau-Wörlitz) and the Bauhaus School of Design (Bauhaus Hochschule für Gestaltung) have not only bequeathed the city and its surrounds inestimable architectural urban spaces, but also an associated intellectual heritage which has made a lasting impact on the world.
