Belvedere, Historical pavilion in Charlottenburg Palace Gardens, Germany
The Belvedere features an oval ground plan with four rectangular extensions, crowned by a copper dome and decorated with gilded figures.
Built between 1788 and 1789 by architect Carl Gotthard Langhans, the Belvedere served as a tea house and viewing pavilion for King Friedrich Wilhelm II.
The building now exhibits the porcelain collection of Berlin, displaying dinner services and vases from the Royal Porcelain Manufactory Berlin founded in 1763.
Located at Spandauer Damm 10-22 in Berlin, the Belvedere underwent extensive restoration between 1956 and 1961 following World War II damage.
The pavilion hosted secret gatherings of the Order of Gold and Rose-Crossers, where spirit summonings influenced the king's connection to this society.
