State Council Building, Government building in Berlin-Mitte, Germany.

The State Council Building features grey sandstone and red rhyolite facades across its three-story steel frame construction at Schlossplatz 1.

From 1964 to 1990, this structure served as the headquarters for the German Democratic Republic's State Council after relocating from Schönhausen Palace.

The building incorporates Portal IV from the former Berlin Palace, connecting modern East German architecture with elements of Berlin's earlier periods.

The European School of Management and Technology has operated within this protected architectural monument since its renovation in 2006.

Red rhyolite rectangular panels on the exterior walls reflect the political symbolism through their resemblance to banners.
