The Marmorpalais, or Marble Palace, is a Neoclassical royal residence in Potsdam near Berlin, commissioned by King Frederick William II of Prussia and designed by Carl von Gontard and Carl Gotthard Langhans. Built in 1787 on the grounds of the Neuer Garten overlooking the Heiliger See, the palace takes its name from its marble decoration despite being constructed primarily of brick. The residence remained in use by the Hohenzollern family through the early twentieth century. Under communist rule it functioned as a military museum; following restoration, it has reopened to the public as a museum and architectural heritage monument in Brandenburg.
