Former Australian Embassy, Berlin, Heritage site and former embassy in Pankow, Germany
The former Australian diplomatic building features standardized socialist modernist architecture with prefabricated elements characteristic of diplomatic structures in East Berlin.
The embassy operated during the German Democratic Republic period, serving as Australia's primary diplomatic mission in East Berlin until German reunification.
The building hosted exhibitions and events promoting Australian art, fostering academic partnerships between German and Australian institutions through cultural exchanges.
The structure currently functions under the German Humanists' Association, which plans to transform the building into an educational facility pending restoration work.
In 2018, the Ex-Embassy art exhibition transformed the heritage site into a creative space, examining Cold War relations through installations and research archives.
