Berlin, Germany

The Palace of the Republic (German: Palast der Republik) in Berlin was the seat of the parliament of the GDR, the People's Chamber, and also served various cultural purposes. Located on the bank of the River Spree between Schloßplatz and the Lustgarten (both referred to jointly as Marx-Engels-Platz from 1951 to 1994), it also housed two large auditoria, art galleries, a theatre, 13 restaurants, a bowling alley and a discothèque. On 23 August 1990, the Volkskammer decided in this building about the treaty of the German reunification, which was later then also confirmed by the Bundestag in Bonn. The building was constructed between 1973 and 1976 at the site of the former Hohenzollern palace (Stadtschloß), and had been completely deconstructed by 2008 to make room for a planned Stadtschloß reconstruction.
