Heidegger and Architects

Throughout his life, Heidegger sought contact with creative people who

interested him, including writers, poets and artists. He took little interest,

however, in seeking out architects or expert architecture. Heidegger visited

Le Corbusier’s new pilgrimage chapel at Ronchamp in 1953, not far across the

French border from his Freiburg home, but the building didn’t excite him.
