Praunheim.

i set out to have a look at siedlung #praunheim ( a late 1920ies colony built by ernst may - frankfurt's most well-known city planner ) but ended up loving a 1960 mourning hall way more 😍 the mourning hall at the #westhausen cemetery was built by architect günter bock and sculptor otto herbert hajek ( who contributed also to wiesbaden's very own mauritiuskirche - my absolute favourite church building here 🖤 ). it's a brutalist structure at its finest and entices with a 75 meter long ferroconcrete wall with abstract sculptural carvings. i completely, utterly fell in love with this jewel! talk about never obsessing about anything 😌 turns out that i do, just not over what presumably everyone else obsesses over. #frankfurt #architecture #neuesfrankfurt #brutalism #mourninghalls #friedhofwesthausen #günterbock #ottoherberthajek #sculpturalarchitecture #swiperight (hier: Friedhof Westhausen) https://www.instagram.com/p/B68p9M7KvaU/?igshid=1ibvuqsexctvx
