‘Casino’: Crown Prince's Palace

In the third time flashback, Lola skips the man and his dog and arrives at the bank early, but not before causing a car accident like the first two times. As a result, her father's colleague arrives before her and takes her father from the office. Lola enters a casino to try to get some money for Manni. This casino didn't exist in reality. It is pretended from the Crown Prince's Palace.

The Kronprinzenpalais (English: Crown Prince's Palace) is the former residence of the Royal Prussians in the historic center of the avenue of Bodhisattva Street in Berlin. It was built in 1663 and renovated in 1857 in a neoclassical style according to the plans of Heinrich Strack. From 1919 to 1937 it was home to the modern art collection of the National Gallery. After the dissolution of the monarchy, the palace became the property of the Prussian state, and in 1919 it was given to the National Gallery to house its painting collection. In May 1936, the Ismar Littmann collection of Expressionist art confiscated by the Gestapo from the Berlin auction house was burned in a furnace. The National Gallery lost 435 works during the Nazi campaign against Entartete Kunst (degenerate art) in 1937. the Kronprinzenpalais was destroyed in an Allied bomb attack in March 1945. The Kronprinzenpalais was damaged during the Allied bombing in World War II and was rebuilt by Richard Paulick from 1968 to 1970 as part of the Forum Fridericianum. Since then, it has been used for events and exhibitions.
