Image title: The renovation of the Bundestag, Reichstag Palace in Berlin (Germany). Renovation 1999, entrusted to architect Sir Norman Foster. The construction of a Paul Wallot project was completed in December 1894. The Italian High Renaissance style building is topped by a dome that rises 75 metres above the ground. Dem Deutschen Volke (To the German People) was affixed during the First World War. On November 9, 1918, from a window in the palace, politician Philipp Scheidemann announced the end of the Hohenzollern monarchy and proclaimed the Republic. The Sovietic army raised a red flag on April 30, 1945 when Berlin was captured at the end of World War II. The building was renovated between 1961 and 1973 by the Federal Republic of Germany without the dome. After the German reunification of 3 October 1990, the German Parliament (Bundestag) decided on 20 June 1991 to move the Federal Parliament and Government from Bonn to Berlin and to reinstate it in the Reichstag Palace. Symbol of the Reichstag, the dome is reconstructed from glass. Photography 01/04/98.
