Landesvertretung Brandenburg, State representation building in Ministergärten, Berlin, Germany.
Landesvertretung Brandenburg is an administrative building in the Ministergärten that connects two L-shaped wings with a central hall and sits near the Holocaust Memorial. The structure combines glass and granite elements and houses spaces for events and offices for coordinating between Brandenburg and federal authorities.
The building was founded after reunification in 1990 and constructed between 1999 and 2001 by Hamburg architecture firm gmp. It emerged during a period when Brandenburg needed to define its role in a united Germany and required a modern representation of its interests.
The building serves as a venue for political meetings and regional exhibitions, where visitors can experience Brandenburg's role in the federal system. The spaces reflect the state's function and create a setting where local concerns connect with national importance.
The building is centrally located in the Ministergärten area and is easily accessible by public transit, with several subway stations nearby. Visitors should know that entry for events or tours requires advance registration and hours vary depending on scheduled meetings or exhibitions.
Between 2011 and 2013, the building underwent renovation where its original slate facade was replaced with granite plates, giving it a more contemporary appearance. This renewal was done to better adapt materials to modern requirements and weather resistance.
