Reason #13: Why I Love Germany: German Architecture, the Illertal Ost Rest Haus

Eye catching German architecture, the outside of the Illertal Ost Rest Haus
The #13th reason that I love Germany is German architecture, but this post takes a lighter look at German architecture in  the form of the Illertal Ost Rest Haus in southern Germany.  The Illertal Ost Rest Haus is a fully functioning rest haus that we stop at everytime we drive by.  It makes me smile every time I see it and the architect's zaney  imagination is clear as is his sense of humor - children will love it. The Illertal Ost Rest Haus may be unconvetional German architecture, but that's makes it so special.  Take a look at photos of the Illertal Ost Rest Haus and see what you think of this piece of wacky German architecture. 
Each section of the Illertal Ost  Rest Haus has a different theme in this unique piece of German architecture

The Illertal Ost Rest Haus acts not only as a piece of German architecture, but is also very functional
Imaginative sculptures line the perimeter of the Illertal Ost

    These places are beautiful and wild with color. I had a really good friend in high school from Germany, who returned there after Senior year. I've always wanted to visit! The architecture is so unique, it reminds me of something out of a movie or a dream :)

    Have you seen any of Hundertwasser's stuff? He's got a similar style. Germany's so full of surprises, isn't it?! =P Hang in there w/the Deutsch Kurse...I'd say it'll pass, but Dativ just always bites!

    seemed they wanna entertain children first, with those humorous looks. believe those people who can engineer the masterpiece designs of bimmers and merces can do great with building architecture too.
