The prototype: Single-family house EW 65 as a semi-detached house

The EW 65 detached house was a standardized residential building that was widely used in the GDR. Developed by VEB Kombinat Bau Meiningen, it was characterized by its functional architecture and the typical GDR colors. The semi-detached house variant made it possible to accommodate two families under one roof, which was a space-saving housing solution, especially in urban areas. Many of these buildings can still be found in East German housing estates today and bear witness to the living culture of the time.
