In the Ruhr area, but also in many other European cities and regions the 1950s to 1970s were an exceptionally innovative time for economy, culture, technology, and society. All over Europs new schools, universities, town halls, churches, department stores, and housing estates were built. These structures were built for a better future. Now they are the heritage of the past. It is now time to embrace this heritage!
BBB has planned a variety of activities that demonstrate this European dimension of post-war modernism. The project united numerous people in many European cities and regions, who are involved in the different facets of post-war modernism and the strategies of further development.
