Centennial Hall on the UNESCO List

A culmination of our admiration expressed for the Centennial Hall so far, must be a unique laurel. Apparently, the UNESCO Committee thought the same way, inscribing Max Berg’s unique work in 2006 on the World Heritage List.

The construction of the Centennial Hall, which was carried out at an exceptionally fast pace, was a special technological undertaking, an example of the highest engineering and craft proficiency.

The bold construction and organizational solutions applied have become a model for other such projects. Just like the design by Max Berg itself.
