OPEN MONUMENT DAY IN THE SPORTS HALL KT60L

Zurich
Just about a year ago, at the Sixth Annual Conference of the Gesellschaft für Bautechnikgeschichte in Berlin (11-13 May 2023), seven of the 17 presentations had been delivered by participants from the SPP 2255. This considerable presence in the German-speaking context of the history of construction was now followed by a no less remarkable international display at the 8th International Congress on Construction History in Zurich (8ICCH, 24 – 28.6.2024). This year’s conference with well over 200 participants from all over the world had been organized by the Institute for Preservation and Construction History at ETH Zurich.

Magdeburg
Im Forschungsschwerpunkt SPP 2255 „Kulturerbe Konstruktion“ der DFG befassen sich WissenschaftlerInnen der TU BA Freiberg und TU Braunschweig mit den Konstruktionen des VEB Metalleichtbau-kombinat (MLK). Ein Typenbauwerk des MLKs ist das Sporthalle KT60L.
Die Sporthalle der Freie Waldorfschule Magdeburg e.V. wurde Mitte 1970er Jahre erbaut und in den Jahren 2007 sowie 2010/11 saniert. Sie stellt wegen des innovativen Erhaltungsansatzes ein Vorbild für den allgemeinen und auch denkmalpflegerischen Umgang von Typenbauwerken der DDR dar.

Berlin-Tempelhof
The former Berlin-Tempelhof Airport is one of the largest listed building complexes in Germany. Built between 1936 and 1941, the facility mirrors several phases of German history in a unique way. The huge building complex is also of particular importance in terms of construction history; back in 2011, it was already honored by the Federal Chamber of Engineers as a “Historical Landmark of the Art of Engineering”.

Cottbus
Night of Creative Minds invites you to explore the DFG Priority Program SPP2255 Cultural Heritage Construction or High Modernism via touch screen and 3D interactive technology

Cottbus

Braunschweig
A two-week exhibition in the architecture pavilion at the TU Braunschweig presents the fields of work of the eleven sub-projects of SPP 2255 to a wider public. In addition to general information, interesting objects and impressions from the respective activities within the framework of the work will also be presented.

Cottbus
The first three-year funding phase of the DFG Priority Program 2255 “Cultural Heritage Construction” (SPP 2255) ended at the end of 2023. In the context of the impulse meeting for the second funding phase 2024 – 2026, the SPP will present the fields of work of the eleven completed sub-projects from the first funding phase of SPP 2255 to a wider public in the foyer of the Central Main Building (ZHG) on the central campus of the BTU in Cottbus. In addition to general information, interesting objects and impressions from the respective activities in connection with the work will also be presented.

Zurich
Bereits in der ersten Förderphase (2021 – 2023) hatte sich eine enge Zusammenarbeit zwischen den Teilprojekten A1 und A2 des „Eisenbahnclusters“ im SPP 2255 sowie der Fachstelle Denkmalpflege der Schweizerischen Bundesbahn (SBB) etabliert. Auf Initiative der Schweizer Kolleg*innen kam nun erstmals an der ETH Zürich eine gemeinsame neue Arbeitsgruppe zusammen. Sie hat sich die Entwicklung eines Positionspapiers als Grundlage für eine künftige ICOMOS-Charta zur Eisenbahndenkmalpflege zum Ziel gesetzt.

Braunschweig
The third think tank of the DFG priority program cultural heritage construction is based on the annual theme 2023 of the SPP 2255 “High Modern Age adapt to the loads – cultural concepts and ingenious strategies for a difficult heritage”.

Dessau-Roßlau
The second think tank of the DFG focus program Cultural Heritage Construction addressed the concept of authenticity, a central value standard of monument preservation action, whose efficiency in dealing with the building constructions of the high-modern has hardly been examined up to now. Renowned experts traced the challenges, criteria and processes of concrete handling in this special area. On closer inspection, the ‘guiding star of monument preservation’ turned out to be a fragile and dynamic construction.
