This article is a mess -- is it about the institution or the building? Also, all of the information about one scholarly group's work on collecting, collating, and editing the Reichsakten is interesting, but also demonstrates a basic misunderstanding of research methods and the types of sources available to historians.

Some questions:

  • when was it built?
  • who was its architect?
  • what was its first purpose?
  • fire in 1933?
  • when was it rebuilt?
  • with whom as architect?
  • what was added?
  • wrapping by christo?



2002-04-27 I split the page up and added a lot about the history of the institution. Will work on the building next; I hope to be able add some pictures too. :-) djmutex
