The exhibition, to feature Breuer's drawings, architectural models and furniture, as well as old photographs and catalogues, will open on May 4.
The exhibition was first shown at the Design Museum of Weil am Rhein, in Germany, in 2003. Since then, it has travelled to Brussels, Glasgow and Madrid.
Breuer was born in the city of Pécs, in southwest Hungary, in 1902. He left Hungary in the 1920s to study, then teach at the Bauhaus school. He died in 1981.
Among the buildings Breuer designed are the UNESCO headquarters in Paris, the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York and the IBM Campus in Boca Raton, Florida.
Breuer's best known furniture design was for the Wassily chair, the first tubular bent steel chair, made for the artist Wassily Kandinsky in 1925. The chair, which was partly inspired by a bicycle, became the starting point for a series of furniture all made from the same steel tube materials.
The exhibition will stay at the Ludwig Museum until June 10.
