Görtz-Palais, Heritage monument in Neustadt, Hamburg, Germany

The Görtz-Palais stands on Neuer Wall 86 with a baroque facade featuring sandstone ionic pilasters and cornices influenced by Dutch architectural design.

Built in 1710 by architect Johannes Nicolaus Kuhn for diplomat Georg Heinrich von Görtz, the palace served as residence for imperial ambassadors from 1722 to 1806.

The building underwent multiple transformations, from city administration offices to police headquarters, reflecting Hamburg's changing administrative needs through centuries.

The structure contains 5,000 square meters of space across multiple floors, with passages connecting Neuer Wall to Stadthausbrücke and Große Bleichen.

During reconstruction in the 1950s, while preserving the historic baroque facade, architects integrated a modern seven-story building behind the original structure.
