Tiergarten
Tiergarten is a former borough of Berlin, since 2001 a part of the expanded borough Mitte.
Before reunification, it was a part of West Berlin. It contains the
neighbourhoods of Hansaviertel, Moabit and Tiergarten-Süd.
Among others, the Reichstag, the office of the
German Chancellor and several embassies, as well as the
residence of the German President, Schloss Bellevue, are located in
Tiergarten. The Brandenburg Gate and the Potsdamer Platz are situated on its eastern border, which used to be the
frontier between East and West Berlin. Its name is derived from the
Tiergarten Park, the biggest park in Berlin.
