Description

The State Council Building is a building in the former East Berlin that hosted the State Council , the collective head of state of the German Democratic Republic , from 1964 to 1990.

The building, which lies to the south of the Schloßplatz, was constructed from 1962 to 1964 by the architects Roland Korn and Hans-Erich Bogatzky. It incorporates in its asymmetrical facade the Karl-Liebknecht-Portal , a fraction of the facade of the former Berlin Palace comprising the balcony from which Karl Liebknecht proclaimed a "Free Socialist Republic of Germany" on 9 November 1918, on the eve of the end of World War I, two hours after Social Democrat Philipp Scheidemann proclaimed the "Republic of Germany" from a window of the Reichstag building.
