summary |
Classified as a historical monument, it is the world’s third biggest building and was once the oldest airport in service. In accordance with the designs of Ernst Sagebiel, a student of Erich Mendelsohn, construction work started in 1936. The outbreak of the Second World War prevented the completion of the building project. After the war, the area became an American military base, gaining international fame in the postwar period, thanks to the Allied airlift Luftbru_cke. |
