Tiergarten at a glance

Tiergarten (literally 'Animal Garden') is a locality within Berlin's Mitte borough in central Berlin. The area is defined by the Großer Tiergarten, a 210-hectare urban park originally designed in the 1830s by landscape architect Peter Joseph Lenné. Before German reunification, Tiergarten formed part of West Berlin. Today, it serves as the city's governmental and cultural center, housing the Bundestag in the historic Reichstag building and the German Chancellery.

The area is bounded on its eastern edge by the Brandenburg Gate and Potsdamer Platz, once the frontier between East and West Berlin.

Cultural and governmental landmarks

Tiergarten houses institutions of international significance. The Kulturforum, an ensemble stretching from the Berliner Philharmonie concert hall (built 1963) to the Neue Nationalgalerie (designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, 1968), anchors the district's cultural offerings alongside the Gemäldegalerie museum. The neoclassical Saint Matthew Church (built 1845) and the German President's official residence, Schloss Bellevue, are also located within the Tiergarten.

The area contains several diplomatic and historical sites, including numerous embassies and the Bendlerblock, home to Germany's Federal Ministry of Defense. The Berlin Zoo borders Tiergarten to the west, and the Straße des 17. Juni serves as the park's main east-west thoroughfare. Road and rail tunnels run beneath the park toward Berlin's main station in nearby Moabit.
