Generalstabsgebäude Berlin, Military headquarters building in Berlin-Mitte, Germany
The Generalstabsgebäude features Neo-Renaissance architecture with classical elements, standing prominently at Königsplatz 6 in central Berlin with its commanding stone facades.
From 1867 to 1871, architect August Ferdinand Fleischinger constructed this building to serve as the seat of the Great General Staff during the German Empire.
