What does this picture show?

Photograph of a large parliament building in pale stone, with a wide colonnaded portico, a triangular pediment and a glass dome on the roof.

Why — for every option

  1. A — Correct: the picture shows the Reichstag building in Berlin, seat of the German Bundestag since 1999, easily recognisable by its glass dome.
  2. B — The Federal Constitutional Court sits in Karlsruhe in a different, much more modern building complex, not the Reichstag building.
  3. C — The Bundesrat meets in its own building on Leipziger Platz in Berlin, not the Reichstag building.
  4. D — The Federal Chancellery is a separate modern building near the Reichstag, architecturally clearly distinguishable.
