Kornhaus

"Imagine sitting in the same place of the haus Masters (Gropius Klee kandiniski Mucha Schlemmer Mies Von der Rohe)
I went there yesterday, about 4:30, I didn’t have a reservation but I was trying my luck, they gave me a river view table but told me I have to move at six because it’s reserved
I had a very nice meal and a fantastic view and a very powerful Bauhaus vibe
I searched for pictures for the masters of Bauhaus in this restaurent but I couldn’t find , While it's difficult to find a definitive list of every single Bauhaus master who visited the Kornhaus Restaurant, the history and context of the building make it highly likely that many, if not all, of the masters who were active in Dessau would have gone there.
Here's why:
* Designed by a Bauhausler: The architect, Carl Fieger, was himself a prominent figure at the Bauhaus. His personal connection to the school and his work as a draftsman for Walter Gropius ensured a close relationship between the restaurant and the Bauhaus community.
* A Symbol of Modernism: The Kornhaus was a public building that perfectly embodied the "New Building" style that the Bauhaus championed. It would have been a point of pride and interest for the architects, designers, and artists of the school, much like the main Bauhaus building and the Masters' Houses.
* A Social Hub: As a popular and modern excursion restaurant situated in a scenic location on the Elbe River, the Kornhaus would have been a natural gathering place. The Bauhaus masters and their families lived and worked in Dessau, and a new, beautifully designed restaurant would have been a prime location for social outings, dinners, and events.
* Collaborative Project: The fact that the interior was a collaborative effort, with lamps designed by Marianne Brandt and the color scheme handled by the Bauhaus wall painting workshop, shows that the school's artists and designers were directly involved in the project. This would have given them a vested interest in visiting and showing off their work.
In short, while there may not be specific photographic evidence of, say, Wassily Kandinsky or Paul Klee dining there on a particular date, the Kornhaus was a significant project and a social landmark in Dessau during the Bauhaus's most productive years. It is almost certain that the masters, who were deeply engaged in shaping the city's modern identity, would have frequented it."

"Amazing view of the Elbe, above-average prices, but the food is delicious, and the service is good, too. Two dark beers with cherry juice + 2 main courses with meat/fish costed us 50 euros. The portions were generous. Comparably simple, but tasty food. Maybe, you shouldn’t expect too much from this architecturally iconic place."

"It’s a landmark place in Dessau with the historic building and stunning views on the water. Food and drinks were disappointing unfortunately. The goat cheese salad looked sad, although the cheese was good. We ordered specialty deserts from Kornhaus, and although served in a nice manner, they were average. The house made lemonade with maraquia had very artificial taste. Probably the best is just have a coffee there for the experience and the views."
