Reconstruction of Berlin City Palace

The Berlin City Palace reconstruction combines historical with modern elements on Museum Island. It features three preserved baroque facades and one contemporary side that defines the building's character.

The original building was constructed in the 15th century as a royal residence and suffered severe damage during World War II. In the 1950s, it was demolished by East German authorities.

The Humboldt Forum inside displays collections of art and culture from regions around the world. Visitors can explore exhibitions and participate in public events and discussions.

The building is accessible through multiple entrances, with the main portal located at Schlossplatz. Public transportation stops are within comfortable walking distance.

The dome of the building features eight restored prophet statues created with traditional craftsmanship and modern construction methods. This blend shows how historical details were preserved in the reconstruction.
