unique and yet representative of an entire generation from Eastern Central Europe. Born in 1893 in Russian-Poland, he fled the pogroms in the crumbling Tsarist Empire with his family to settle in Offenbach and Mainz. In 1933, he was forced to emigrate again, this time from Hamburg to Haifa in the precarious British Mandate territory of Palestine. As a wanderer between worlds, Klarwein repeatedly changed his first name. In his work as an architect, he initiated numerous important impulses that continue to resonate to this day. The publication serves as an overview of Klarwein’s oeuvre. It makes extensive sources from his scattered estate available for the first time and aims to stimulate further research.
