Inside the Konzerthaus Gendarmenmarkt (Mitte)

The Konzerthaus in Gendarmenmarkt is a very famous Berlin building, with  the main hall originally designed for a theater by Karl Friedrich Schinkel between 1818 and 1821. Unfortunately the building was damaged during the Battle of Berlin in the WWII and has been redesigned after.
Today it is separated in the halls, a very huge one and a smaller one, both decorated with neoclassical elements and very nice candel holders and chandeliers.

During Christmas time the square is hosting a weihnachtsmarkt, so the main entrance is not accessible.
