Orangerie (Berlin)

The Orangerie in Berlin was a historic greenhouse built in the 18th century, originally designed to house exotic plants and citrus trees during winter. Architecturally, it reflects classical garden design with elegant arches and glass structures that maximize sunlight. Over time, it has served different purposes, including as a botanical display and a cultural site. Today, it remains a symbol of Berlin’s horticultural history and is often used for events or exhibitions. Its preserved architecture offers insight into 18th-century European garden design and the importance placed on botanical collection and display during that period.
