- The Prussian House of Lords was the first chamber of the Parliament of the Kingdom of Prussia from 1850-1918. The second chamber was the Prussian House of Representatives (Preußisches Haus der Abgeordneten, also called the Abgeordnetenhaus). The House of Lords was created on January 31 1850 with the adoption of the Constitution of the Kingdom of Prussia. Its seat was on Leipziger Straße at a building rebuilt by the architect Friedrich Schulze in 1904. A member of the House of Lords was known as a pair, or officially as a member of the Prussian House of Lords (Mitglieder des preußischen Herrenhauses, or MdH). The House consisted of hereditary peers, life peers appointed by the King of Prussia, peers by virtue of position, representatives of cities and universities, etc. The majority of members were nobles, although the House also had commoners as members, especially among the representatives of cities and universities. The breakdown was as follows: Princes of the royal house of Hohenzollern who had reached their majority Members with hereditary right: The head of the princely house of Hohenzollern The heads of the former German states of the Holy Roman Empire in royal Prussian lands - These were primarily mediatized princely houses, such as Arenberg, Bentheim-Steinfurt, Fürstenberg, Isenburg (also Ysenburg), Salm-Horstmar, Salm-Salm, Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg, Sayn-Wittgenstein-Hohenstein, Solms-Hohensolms-Lich, Solms-Rödelheim-Assenheim, Stolberg-Wernigerode, and Wied. Other members with hereditary right - These were primarily princes and counts from lands absorbed by Prussia over the centuries, such as the duke of Schleswig-Holstein, the count of Westphalia, and the landgrave of Hessen-Philippsthal. Life members: Holders of the four great court appointments (große Hofämter) of the kingdom - These were the state steward (Landhofmeister), the chancellor (Kanzler), the lord marshal (Obermarschall), and the lord burgrave (Oberburggraf). Members entrusted by the king - These were both nobles and commoners, and included select generals and admirals, senior government officials, business leaders, and philanthropists. Members called by presentation - These were primarily holders of noble estates, the university representatives, and the lord mayors of cities given the right of presentation. With the German Revolution and the fall of the Hohenzollern monarchy resulting from World War I, the Prussian House of Lords was dissolved in 1918. The Federal Council or Bundesrat of Germany has its seat in the former Prussian House of Lords.
- Das Preußische Herrenhaus war im Zweikammersystem des Landes nach der Verfassungsurkunde für den preußischen Staat vom 31. Januar 1850 die erste Kammer des Parlamentes und bildete zusammen mit dem Abgeordnetenhaus die Legislative. Die bis 1918 gültige Ausgestaltung erfolgte allerdings erst mit einer königlichen Verordnung von 1854. Die Mitglieder des Preußischen Herrenhauses (abgekürzt MdH) werden in der historischen Forschung in Anlehnung an französische und englische Mitglieder der jeweiligen Oberhäuser auch „Pairs“ genannt.
- Le Chambre des seigneurs de Prusse est un bâtiment de Berlin en Allemagne, qui accueillit la « Chambre des Seigneurs » (Herrenhaus) la chambre Haute du parlement prussien de 1899 à 1932. Depuis 1999, suite à la réunifiacation et au retour des institutions fédérales à Berlin il abrite le Bundesrat (« Conseil fédéral »), la chambre haute de la République fédérale d'Allemagne.
