Königskolonnaden, Neoclassical colonnade in Heinrich-von-Kleist-Park, Berlin, Germany
The Königskolonnaden features two parallel colonnades with Ionic double columns, extending 52 meters in width and decorated with intricate stone reliefs and sculptures.
Built between 1777 and 1780 by architect Carl von Gontard, the structure was relocated from Königstrasse near Alexanderplatz to its current location in 1910.
The architectural design marks the transition period between Rococo and Neoclassical styles, incorporating white sandstone elements and copper sheet roofing materials.
The colonnade structure, located at coordinates 52.4924, 13.3603, provides covered walkways and serves as an entrance point to Heinrich-von-Kleist-Park from Potsdamer Street.
The sculptural decorations include children figures created by Friedrich Elias Meyer II and Wilhelm Christian Meyer, restored during a major renovation in 1831.
