Abstract:
War has a terrible impact on humanity, not only people are affected but also the architectural objectives made by them. The destruction of a building for an architectural purpose means the destruction of the history behind them and the work done to achieve it. The fascists did so during the war, they wanted to destroy any memory or history related to the SSSR. How does war affect people's lives? What about architectural urbanism? Many architectural objects are preserved, restored and protected from demolition. War is an impertinent danger to national heritage of every country. The aim of this paper is to investigate the impact ad consequences of the war on architecture. It also analyses the way architects work with the tragedies of the 20th century, what is a good war monument and how to live with such a memorial every day. The paper illustrates that while the war always has a physical impact on buildings and structures, meanwhile changing the perception of architecture by the architects themselves. It polarizes attitudes towards architecture and its significance. Traditional architecture gains importance and admiration as it resists through ages. However, global styles of architecture have become trendier and more fashionable. The paper illustrates the impact of war on the physical as well as the symbolic aspects of architecture in the world.
