Reichstag Building

Palace Berlin, Germany

The Reichstag is a historic building in Berlin, built to house the "Imperial Diet" of the German Empire.

It was opened in 1894 and housed the Diet until 1933, when it was badly damaged after burning down. After World War II, the building fell into disuse; and was only made safe in the 1960s. After its completion in 1999, it once again became the meeting place of the German parliament – the modern Bundestag.
