English summary: What defines an art-historical approach to architectural history? What aims does it pursue, and what insights can it offer? This festschrift, celebrating the 65th birthday of Christian Freigang, gathers fifteen contributions from the honoree’s colleagues, each exploring these questions through engagement with specific buildings, images, and stories spanning from the Middle Ages to the present day: from the ancient Via Appia to new museum constructions, from the Sainte-Chapelle to the Eiffel Tower, and from High Gothic to the history of heritage conservation. The essays reflect a selection of themes central to Christian Freigang’s research interests. In this way, the book opens a dialogue on architecture, exploring the richly interwoven relationships between buildings, images, and stories. German description: Was macht eine kunsthistorische Architekturgeschichte aus? Welches Erkenntnisinteresse verfolgt sie, und was kann sie leisten? Architekturgeschichte hat heute erneut das Potenzial, durch ihren medialen Eigenwert die kunstgeschichtliche Auseinandersetzung mit dem impact gestalteter Umwelt zu erweitern. Tradierte Ordnungskategorien und Erklarungskonzepte westlich gepragter Wissenschaften stehen zur Disposition, Relevanz und Aussagefahigkeit “einer” Geschichte der Kunst und Architektur sind neu zu verhandeln. Dieses Buch versammelt 15 Beitrage zu dieser Neuverortung anhand der Beschaftigung mit konkreten Bauten: von der antiken Via Appia bis zum Museumsneubau, von der Sainte-Chapelle bis zum Eiffelturm und von der Hochgotik bis zur Geschichte der Denkmalpflege. Die Aufsatze spiegeln damit auch eine Auswahl der Themenfelder vom Mittelalter bis in die Gegenwart wider, auf die sich Christian Freigangs Forschungsinteresse richtet. Das Buch eroffnet damit ein Architekturgesprach uber das so beziehungsreiche Verhaltnis von Bauten, Bildern und Geschichten.
