Alte Schule Brandenburg

Alte Schule Brandenburg

Urbanists tired of the city will find peace and relaxation in rural surroundings in the Old School Brandenburg in the northwest of Berlin. This former school dating back to 1920 on the outskirts of the small village of Sechzehneichen has been transformed into a holiday home with two apartments – on a small budget but a wealth of ideas.

Die kleine Acht

On the outskirts of Lindenhagen in the Uckermark region of north-eastern Brandenburg, Berlin architect Thomas Kröger has converted a 1950s estate house into a fantastic holiday home. The extraordinary transformation of this compact saddle-roofed house with its square contour is evident from the outside: large windows open the building out to the landscape, the roof features two huge dormers, and the façade is divided into several plastered sections.
