Overview

Königsallee winds its way through one of Berlin's most exclusive districts, past villas with Porsches parked outside, past golf courses and private parks, past small lakes and through the idyllic Grunewald forest. Rising above the trees is the lovely Löwenpalais, a splendid neoclassical palace with a bright yellow façade. Built in 1903 and recently renovated, it is now the seat of the Stiftung Starke, an art foundation which promotes the interests of local young artists. The artists work in atmospheric studios attached to the palace and exhibit their work here.
