Encyclopedic overview
Bellevue Palace (German: Schloss Bellevue, pronounced [ʃlɔs bɛlˈvyː] ), located in Berlin's Tiergarten district, has been the official residence of the president of Germany since 1994. The schloss is situated on the banks of the Spree river, near the Berlin Victory Column, along the northern edge of the Großer Tiergarten park. Its name – the French for "beautiful view" – derives from its scenic prospect over the Spree's course.
