The Gendarmenmarkt is a square in Berlin, and the site of the Konzerthaus and the French and German Cathedrals.
The centre of the Gendarmenmarkt is crowned by a statue of Germany's poet Friedrich Schiller.
The square was created by Johann Arnold Nering at the end of the seventeenth century as the Linden-Markt and reconstructed by Georg Christian Unger in 1773.
The Gendarmenmarkt is named after the cuirassier regiment Gens d ' Armes, which was deployed at this square until 1773.
