Berlin: Eingangshalle der Staatsbibliohtek Unter den Linden - Entrance Hall of the State Library Unter den Linden
The State Library Unter den Linden was built between 1903 and 1914 in the Neo-Baroque and Neo-Renaissance style to replace its predecessor on the boulevard Unter den Linden. Until 1945, it was home to the Prussian State Library, the University Library and the Prussian Academy of Sciences. After severe damage during the Second World War and partial demolitions and structural changes during the GDR, the complex was completely renovated and extended from 2005 to 2019. Since German reunification, it has been home to parts of the Berlin State Library and the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The State Library Unter den Linden is one of the largest buildings in Berlin and one of the most important libraries in the world. Today, however, it is divided into two locations. Part of the holdings removed during the war were housed in the western part of Germany. In the western part of Berlin, a new building was erected for these old holdings and new acquisitions at the new Cultural Forum, which was opened in 1978. In 1992, the two libraries, which had been separate until then, were united under the name "Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin - Preußischer Kulturbesitz" ("Berlin State Library - Prussin Cultural Heritage")
