Description

The Gendarmenmarkt is an elegant square enveloped by two stunning cathedrals—the French-style Dom and the German-style Deutscher Dom—and embellished by the grandly porticoed Konzerthaus concert hall. Named in honor of the 18th-century Prussian regiment comprised of French Huguenot refugees, the Gens d'Armes, this magnificent square is a testament to the nation’s storied history.
