    Planned in the 1990s during Helmut Kohl's time in office and moved into by then Chancellor Schröder in 2001, the Federal Chancellery is the largest seat of government in the world. However, that doesn't mean that other governments have fewer staff - they are just spread across several buildings.

    The monumental building was planned by the architects Axel Schultes and Charlotte Frank. The building is part of the group of buildings in the Spreebogen, which is called the "Band of the Federation".

      The Chancellery in Berlin is the official residence of the Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany and forms the political center of the German government. The building, inaugurated in 2001 and designed by the architect Axel Schultes, is located in the government district in close proximity to the Reichstag building.

      With its striking modern architecture and striking glass dome, the Chancellery is an iconic landmark of the German capital. The building covers an impressive area and, in addition to the offices of the Federal Chancellor, also houses various work and meeting rooms for members of the government.

      The Chancellery plays a central role in German politics as it is the place where important political decisions are made and coordination processes take place at the highest level of government. The building's glass architecture also reflects the principle of transparency, which is important for democratic governance. A look at the Chancellery not only provides an insight into Germany's political power center, but also into the openness and responsibility that goes with it.

        Impressive, modern architecture. It is in no way inferior to the government buildings of other nations.
