Das Burgenland ist mit 100 Jahren das jüngste Bundesland Österreichs, wenngleich es bereits von den Kelten und Römern erschlossen wurde. Sein pannonisches Klima und die sanft-hügelige Landschaft prädestinieren es für Elementares wie Weinbau und einen sanften Tourismus in dünn besiedelter Region. Seit dem Fall des Eisernen Vorhangs hat ein kultureller und wirtschaftlicher Aufholprozess im ehemaligen Westungarn begonnen, lange zuvor schon war es der Rückzugsort einer internationalen Künstlerszene in pittoresken Dorflandschaften. Zwischen Modernisierung und ländlichen Strukturen – diese Polarität begleitet das Burgenland bis heute.　 100 exemplarische Bauwerke erzählen von der Entwicklung der Baukultur im Zeitraum der letzten 100 Jahre. Sieben Essays vermitteln Themen wie die Wiener Moderne im Burgenland, Internationalisierung, Burgenland-Brutalismus oder eine ländliche Postmoderne. Eine europäische Baugeschichte, erzählt am Beispiel eines besonderen Territoriums in der Mitte Europas, das lange seinen östlichsten Rand markiert hat.

Burgenland is Austria’s youngest province, having been transferred from Hungarian jurisdiction in 1922. The province has a rich history, starting with the Celts in the 4th Century BC and later becoming part of the Roman province of Pannonia. Its mild climate and fertile land predestine it for primary activities such as winemaking and tourism. Because it is sparsely populated, there is ample space for building development. The recent architectural history of Burgenland is represented by vernacular homes in the villages and stately buildings in the towns. 100 exemplary buildings tell of the story of Burgenland’s architecture over the last century. Seven essays cover topics such as Viennese modernism in Burgenland, internationalization, Burgenland brutalism, and rural postmodernism. This is a unique compendium for lovers of architecture and of Burgenland. <UL> <LI>The multifaceted architecture of Burgenland, Austria </LI> <LI>Architectural guide and scholarly compendium in one </LI> <LI>Includes the Egg Museum (Wander Bertoni), Die Grube (Peter Noever), Mattersburg Cultural Center (Herwig Udo Graf), and many more </LI></UL>
