Abstract

This paper gives a critical examination of Otto Wagner’s position in the historiography of modern architecture. Even though the analysis of Wagner’s theory and completed architectural objects proves that he was not so innovative with his theory or practise in the context of the development of modern architecture, this paper positions Wagner’s contribution in the context of his pedagogical activities within the Wagner School, that is the influence he, as a professor, exerted on the generations of young architects who significantly contributed to the architecture of modernism.
