The Prefecture of the Grand-Est Region and the Bas-Rhin Department was built from 1907 until 1911, based on designs by Ludwig Levy. The façade was decorated with statues of lions by Alfred Marzolff. The building also housed ministries of Alsace-Lorraine. It is a more austere example of Baroque Revival architecture than its older counterpart.[16] It is classified as a monument historique since 1996.
