Palais Strousberg, 19th-century palace in Berlin-Mitte, Germany.

The Palais Strousberg, designed by architect August Orth, featured neoclassical elements with Baroque balustrades and extensive interior decorations at Wilhelmstrasse 70.

Railway magnate Bethel Henry Strousberg commissioned the palace construction between 1867 and 1868, investing 900,000 Goldmarks in the project.

The ground floor contained multiple entertainment spaces, including a ballroom, drawing rooms, library, billiard room, and art gallery for social gatherings.

Following its sale to the British Embassy in 1884, the building underwent modifications to create a great hall that accommodated 600 guests.

The palace introduced modern amenities to Berlin architecture, incorporating gas lighting, hot water heating, and bathrooms, setting new standards for residential comfort.
