#sovietpavillon

Subtlety isn't a characteristic that's usually associated with stalinist architecture, and it's not hard to see why. Achilleion, Old Trade Fair, Leipzig. Architects Oskar Pusch and Carl Krämer, 1923. Opened in 1927 and used as a multi-purpose arena for the trade fairs and sporting events, it was reworked into the Soviet Pavillon in 1950. #leipzig #altemesse #altemesseleipzig #achilleion #sowjetischerpavillon #sovietpavillon #architecture #socialistclassicism #socialistrealism #socialistmodernism #1923 #1950s #redstar #cccp
