Handbuch der deutschen Kunstdenkmäler, Bd.1, Mitteldeutschland, 1914

by Georg Dehio

"Handbuch der deutschen Kunstdenkmäler, Bd.1, Mitteldeutschland, 1914" by Georg Dehio is an encyclopedic handbook published in 1914. This landmark volume represents the first comprehensive survey of German artistic monuments, conceived both as a scholarly reference and travel guide. Born from Dehio's 1900 proposal at a monument preservation conference, the work catalogs historic sites across Middle Germany. The project, partially funded by imperial resources, launched a series that continues today, expanding to cover Austria and Poland.
