The people of Germany have been taking a peek along the corridors of power, with government and administrative buildings throwing open their doors to the public. Gerhard Schroeder was among those who welcomed visitors to the Chancellory in Berlin.
Across the country, 100,000 people are estimated to have taken advantage of the "open doors" invitation.
The Chancellor told the crowd that he was pleased to see so many happy people and would love to have the same atmosphere every day, even if it was only for an hour. Some visitors, meanwhile, chose to sample the sumptuous surroundings of the German President's Palace, satisfying their curiousity about what can be found within the walls of Bellevue Castle near Berlin.
