an eyecatching piece of architecture by Daniel Libeskind. (the hyperlink takes you to his own website, which has a simple but interesting layout which is worth visiting also) "Between the lines" the theme used throughout in this project by the architect, to reflect the tensions of German-Jewish history.
from exterior to interior, there were numerous intrigue space to explore, how the planes met, where the lines were drawn, and how is a volume of space accentuated by depriving the space of light except at the apex of its height...
the museum alone is definitely not a piece to be missed if one is ever on the German soil. the exhibition gives a good account of the jewish history in the territory, however, there's some mismatch in the tone of the presentation of the exhibits and this piece of architecture.
