This building complex, mainly constructed in the 1930s, is situ-ated in the "Wilhelmstraße" in Berlin, Germany. It was used as the Department of Propaganda in the Third Reich and later became the Department of Foreign Affairs of East Germany. It was recently converted for its use to accommodate the Department of Employment and Social Security.
