Niederländisches Palais, Baroque palace in Berlin-Mitte, Germany
The Niederländisches Palais was a baroque residence with three stories situated where Oranische Gasse met Unter den Linden in the city center. The building displayed ornate baroque architectural elements across its exterior and interior spaces.
The building was constructed between 1753 and 1758 by architect Friedrich Wilhelm Diterichs and served as a residence for the House of Orange-Nassau starting in 1803. The family occupied it for nearly 80 years before it was eventually demolished.
The palace represented the architectural preferences of 18th-century Prussian nobility, incorporating baroque elements in its facade and interior design.
The palace once stood at Unter den Linden 36 and no longer exists today after its demolition in 1963. Visitors interested in the site can walk through the area to understand the historical context of this former noble residence.
Kaiser Wilhelm I had a glass bridge built across Oranische Gasse to connect this residence with the neighboring Kaiser-Wilhelm-Palais. This elevated passage allowed the monarch to move between the two buildings without stepping outside onto the street.
