De La Warr Pavilion

The De La Warr Pavilion is a grade I listed building, located on the seafront at Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex, on the south coast of England. The Modernist and International Style building was designed by the architects Erich Mendelsohn and Serge Chermayeff and constructed in 1935. It has been described by Historic England as the UK's first public building built in the Modernist style. In 2005, after an extensive restoration, the De La Warr Pavilion reopened as a contemporary arts centre, encompassing one of the largest galleries on the south coast of England. On 18 February 2022, the bandstand, added early in the 21st century, was destroyed by strong winds from Storm Eunice.
