The Haus am Horn is a domestic house in Weimar, Germany, designed by Georg Muche. It was built for the Bauhaus Werkschau (English: Work show) exhibition which ran from July to September 1923. It was the first building based on Bauhaus design principles, which revolutionized 20th century architectural and aesthetic thinking and practice.In keeping with the Bauhaus philosophy of teaching via practical experience and working with industry, a number of students were involved with the building project.In 1996 the building was inscribed as part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site now called the Bauhaus and its Sites in Weimar, Dessau and Bernau, because of its testimony to the architectural influence of the Bauhaus movement.

The Kegel Gate (Kegeltor) was the north-easternmost gate on the city walls of Weimar. From the late Middle Ages onwards it consisted of an inner and outer gate, both located on the left bank of the River Ilm north of Burg Hornstein (now the Weimar City Castle). It was demolished in the second half of the 18th century during the dismantling of the city's fortifications. Although there was no longer any military need for the gate, tolls and paving fees continued to be collected and so in 1803 the medieval building was replaced by an unfortified gatehouse on the right hand of the Ilm towards the Kegel Bridge, probably designed by Heinrich Gentz. This was demolished in 1964 after an accident involving a truck, but the building's foundations still survive. The bridge itself also changed over time, with the removal of the semi-circular icebreaker and the bridge piers' stone parapets (essentially functioning as exedra). and the addition of a new railing.

From 1923, the building has housed the Schlossmuseum, a museum with a focus on paintings of the 15th and 16th centuries and works of art related to Weimar, a cultural centre.

The Free State of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach (German: Freistaat Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach) was a small, short-lived (1918–1920) central German state during the early years of the Weimar Republic. It was formed following the dissolution of the Grand Duchy of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach during the German revolution of 1918–1919. After Grand Duke William Ernest abdicated, Saxe-Weimar Eisenach transitioned peacefully into a republic. It became part of Thuringia when it was created on 1 May 1920.

The State of Thuringia (German: Land Thüringen, [lant ˈtyːʁɪŋən]) was a state of the Weimar Republic from 1920 to 1933, of Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945 and of East Germany from 1949 to 1952. Following German reunification, the renamed Free State of Thuringia became a member state of the Federal Republic of Germany in 1990. The State of Thuringia formed in the aftermath of World War I and the German revolution of 1918–1919. The eight small Thuringian states that had been part of the German Empire drove out their ruling royal houses and adopted republican constitutions in 1918–1919. On 1 May 1920, all except Coburg, which chose to become part of Bavaria, combined to create the State of Thuringia within the Weimar Republic. From the beginning, Thuringia's Landtag (state assembly) was politically fractured, leading to a series of short-lived, unstable governments. When the Communist Party was brought into a coalition in 1923, the German government sent troops into Thuringia's major cities to force the communist ministers to withdraw. In 1929 Thuringia became the first German state to have members of the Nazi Party in its government. The year they were in office is seen as Adolf Hitler's trial run for his rise to power. The Nazis gained full control of the Thuringian government in August 1932, five months before Hitler became chancellor of Germany. After World War II, Thuringia became part of the Soviet Occupation Zone and then of East Germany. It was enlarged by the addition of the Erfurt district, which had been part of Prussia, and in 1948 Erfurt replaced Weimar as the state's capital. In 1952, Thuringia was split into three regional districts and formally dissolved by the East German government in 1958.
