This book analyzes Germany’s contribution to architecture, urban development, engineering and landscaping in Argentina, and in particular to the building of the city of La Plata, which reflects a significant German influence. The results and richness of Argentine-German connections in the field of construction have also extended to other disciplines on both sides of the ocean: art and science, economics and politics, music and literature, theater and film. Details are illustrated of buildings that were, or still are, icons of a unique cultural heritage, derived from novel combinations and associations in the fields of design, construction and urban planning.
