University main building, University administrative building in Greifswald, Germany

The three-story rectangular structure spans 23 window sections and features mansard roofs with segmental arch dormers along its length.

Built between 1747 and 1750 under Swedish rule, the building replaced an earlier Renaissance structure from 1596 on the same foundation.

The ceremonial hall contains 24 marbled wooden Ionic columns in pairs, supporting a gallery decorated with cherubs and ornamental vases.

The building houses the university rector's office, administrative departments, and meeting rooms at Domstraße 11 in central Greifswald.

The building includes a former student jail, used from 1885 to 1914, where walls still display inscriptions from imprisoned students.
