Schloss Charlottenburg (Charlottenburg Palace) is a baroque palace built at the end of the 17th century and was greatly expanded during the 18th century. It includes much lavish internal decoration in baroque and rococco styles. A large formal garden surrounded by woodland was added behind the palace, including a belvedere, a mausoleum, a theatre and a pavilion. During the Second World War, the palace was badly damaged but has since been reconstructed. The palace with its gardens is a major tourist attraction and new reception facilities are now planned to accommodate the increasing visitor numbers. In 2019 HRA completed a design for a 2-storey glass pavilion (one storey is underground) to accommodate ticketing, shop, exhibition area & public toilets.
