The Embassy of Syria in
Arabic: سفارة الجمهورية العربية السورية في برلين) is the diplomatic mission of the Syrian Arab Republic in Germany. It is located at Rauchstraße 25 in Berlin.[1]
Germany expelled the ambassador for the Syrian Arab Republic in May 2012, and expelled the remaining four embassy staff later that year.[2] It was reopened in 2020 and now operates normally with representation at the chargé d'affaires level.[3]
Building
The villa at Rauchstrasse 25 is the only building in the block that survived bomb warfare in WW2 and
central avant-corps
that curves towards the street and is closed off by a balcony on the top floor.
The building was remodeled between 2002 and 2003 and now houses the Syrian Embassy.[5] The conversion architect was Abdalrahman Mahamid. The representative rooms are on the first full floor, offices and administration are one floor above. An extension was added to the old building.[5]
