Why?
The Federal Chancellor works in Berlin: the Federal Chancellery (Bundeskanzleramt) and the Reichstag building with the Bundestag are there. Bonn was the seat of government until parliament and government moved in 1999. Schloss Bellevue is the official residence of the head of state, and Schloss Meseberg is a guest house of the federal government.
