Former Reichsbank building, Government building in Mitte, Germany.

The former Reichsbank building features Roman travertine facades, large rectangular windows, and a monumental entrance with stone columns spanning multiple floors.

Built between 1934 and 1938 under architect Heinrich Wolff's direction, this structure served as the central bank of Nazi Germany until 1945.

The building reflects the architectural preferences of 1930s Germany, featuring strict symmetry, minimal ornamentation, and an emphasis on vertical lines.

Located at Werderscher Markt 1 in Berlin, the building now houses sections of the German Federal Foreign Office with restricted public access.

The concrete structure contains over 2,800 rooms across multiple floors, making it one of Berlin's largest administrative complexes.
