In the artistic community of Neustadt Kunsthofpassage in Dresden, Germany lies a musical rain building that has attracted many curious visitors around the world. However, visitors must wait for the rain in order to hear the symphony of music produced by the intricate system of rain gutters. Inspired by Rube Goldberg Machine, sculptor Annette Paul and designers Christoph Rossner and Andre Tempel have transformed this multi-storey building into a spectacular musical instrument.
Some people believe that this building is a tourist trap because there’s not much evidence to show that it can really play music when it rains. Oh well, music, like beauty, is relative. Better see the building in person, wait for the rain and you be the judge!
Head down to Dresden, Germany if you want to hear the magical rain music yourself.
