Notes

  1. 1.

    The development of Miami Beach city as a known spa took place in the thirties and forties of the twentieth century. Structures in the Art Deco style are the dominant part of the historical buildings of the city.

    Plenarbereich Reichstag, the seat of the German Bundestag, originally built in the neo-Renaissance style based on the project by the architect Paul Wallot in the years 1884–1894. In 1933, this building was almost completely destroyed in the fire. In the 1960s, it was rebuilt, and in the years 1991–1999, it was readapted by Norman Foster.
