The reconstructed Berliner Schloss in the heart of the German capital is both a monument of Baroque architecture and a vital new cultural building in the city. The art history, architecture and sculpture of the palace' s masterful facades by Andreas Schluter are brought to life here in words and pictures. The Berliner Schloss marks the reinstatement of the point of reference for the urban plan of the historical centre of the capital: through the Baroque masterpiece by Andreas Schluter the boulevard Unter den Linden and the historic buildings of the Lustgarten acquire once more a meaningful interconnection. Most of the authors are involved in this major project. They explain with the help of the impressive photographs by Leo Seidel the fascinating construction process, the imagery of the Baroque sandstone facade, the technology and the craftsmanship behind its reconstruction as well as the architectural concept of the building.
Franco Stella is the architect of the reconstructed Berliner Schloss. Kathrin Lange is the Head of Restoration at the Stiftung Preussische Schloesser und Garten in Potsdam. Bernd Lindemann is an art historian and the former director of the Gallery of Paintings of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin. Peter Stephan teaches art history at the University of Applied Sciences in Potsdam. He has published numerous books on Baroque architecture and imagery.
