Royal Loan Office
The Royal Loan Office was founded in 1834 as the successor to the liquidated address house in Berlin. It was first located at Jägerstrasse 64, in 1841 Division II was added at Klosterstrasse 39 and in 1848 Division III in Linienstraße in Berlin-Mitte . After the First World War, the royal loan office was renamed "Staatliches Leihamt". In 1934 the lending office came under the administration of the city of Berlin as the "loan office of the city of Berlin". The building in Linienstraße from 1847 is the only surviving royal loan office in the city. The Royal Loan Office connects Linienstraße 98 with Torstraße with the backyards 164. It was used as a pawn shop until 1990 and, with its unique brick architecture, is a listed building .
This building was originally the one of the only building sitting on the Akzisemauer ran the city. This design was relatively rare at the time, as the buildings originally only developed directly at the gates.
Today the Royal Loan Office is home to a number of creative and media companies , various IT and software companies, as well as some restaurants and galleries .
