Alte Kommandantur, Neoclassical military building in Unter den Linden, Berlin, Germany.

The Alte Kommandantur features grand columns and symmetrical proportions, standing prominently at the address Unter den Linden 1 in central Berlin.

Originally constructed in 1654, the building served as Berlin's military commandant headquarters until its destruction during World War II and subsequent reconstruction in 2003.

The reconstructed structure maintains the architectural heritage of Berlin while functioning as the representative office of media company Bertelsmann.

Located in Berlin-Mitte near Bebelplatz and Gendarmenmarkt, the building stands at the intersection of major historical and administrative districts.

The current structure was rebuilt using historical photographs as reference materials since no original architectural plans remained after the war.

Location: Bezirk Mitte von Berlin

Architects: Thomas van den Valentyn
