Palais Kurland, Baroque palace in Unter den Linden, Berlin, Germany

The palace featured a symmetrical facade with thirteen windows across its front, demonstrating classical architectural elements of the 18th century Berlin style.

Christian Ludwig Möller initiated construction in 1734, creating a two-story structure that later expanded into a three-sided building around a central courtyard.

Between 1805 and 1837, Duchess Dorothea of Courland established the palace as a central meeting point for Berlin's intellectual and social gatherings.

The original palace stood at Unter den Linden 63-65, where the Russian Embassy now stands in central Berlin's governmental district.

The palace underwent multiple transformations, including renovations by Eduard Knoblauch in 1840, before its destruction during the 1944 air raids.
