Kleisthaus, Architectural heritage monument in Berlin-Mitte, Germany.
The Kleisthaus building exhibits a neoclassical facade with shell limestone cladding and features pilasters along with reliefs created by sculptor Georg Kolbe.
Built in 1912 by architect Bodo Ebhardt, the structure initially served as headquarters for Bankgesellschaft von der Heydt until 1936, later housing various government institutions.
The building bears the name of poet Heinrich von Kleist, who resided in a previous structure at this location until his death in 1811.
Located at Mauerstrasse 53, the building opens Monday through Thursday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM and connects to U-Bahn lines U2 and U6.
Since 2001, this structure functions as headquarters for the Federal Government Commissioner for Affairs of People with Disabilities and serves as a meeting space.
