Reichstag, Government building in Tiergarten, Berlin, Germany.
The Reichstag building rises 47 meters tall, constructed from limestone, sandstone, and granite, crowned by a glass dome overlooking the city center.
The structure, completed in 1894, endured significant damage during World War II and remained unused until German reunification in 1990.
The inscription 'Dem deutschen Volke' on the facade represents the connection between the German parliament and its citizens since 1916.
Registration through the Bundestag website grants access to guided tours, plenary sessions, and visits to the glass dome from 8:00 AM until midnight.
The glass dome contains a spiral ramp and mirror system that directs natural light into the parliamentary chamber below.
