The short-lived Belarusian Democratic Republic, which declared independence in March 1918, has established an extraordinary diplomatic mission in Berlin which was active in 1919 – 1925.

[1] Although the republic received no diplomatic recognition by Germany, its representation was officially registered with the German foreign ministry in March 1919.

[3] The mission was actively engaged in helping Belarusian war prisoners, publishing information about Belarus.

[4] The embassy of Belarus in Germany was officially opened in Bonn, Fritz-Schäffer-Straße 20, in 1994 by ambassador Piotra Sadoŭski in the presence of minister Piatro Kraŭčanka and German State Secretary of the Foreign Ministry Dieter Kastrup.

One of these served as a residential building before the Second World War and later became a post office in the times of the German Democratic Republic.
