Rosenthaler Platz is a Berlin U-Bahn station located on the . It opened in 1930 and was designed by A. Grenander, making prominent use of the colour orange. From 1961 to 1989 the station was one of the city's many "ghost stations". The station served as a temporary border crossing after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Rosenthaler Platz in Berlin's Mitte district, district Mitte, forms a crossroads where Rosenthaler Strasse, Brunnenstrasse and Weinbergsweg meet Torstrasse, and is therefore not a square in the true sense of the word. It is located on the site of the former Rosenthaler Tor of the Berlin customs wall, from which a road led to the village of Rosenthal. This gate was one of the few through which Jews were allowed to enter Berlin until the 19th century. Those who were not allowed to enter could stay overnight in a special Jewish hostel. Directly in front of the gate, at the behest of Friedrich II, the Rosenthal suburb was built, a colony in which Saxon guest workers were settled. The Rosenthaler Tor was demolished around 1867 during Berlin's expansion and the demolition of the customs wall. In Alfred Döblin's novel Berlin Alexanderplatz, published in 1929, Rosenthaler Platz plays the central role in his second book; the construction work on the underground between Alexanderplatz and Rosenthaler Platz is also mentioned in it.The Rosenthaler Platz underground station was opened on 18 April 1930. When construction of the Berlin Wall began in the night of 13 August 1961, it was closed because the line led to West Berlin on both sides. Shortly after reunification in the GDR, from 22 December 1989 until the summer of 1990, the station functioned as a temporary border crossing. To the north of Rosenthaler Platz is the Weinbergspark.

The Volkspark am Weinberg (also called Weinbergspark) is the only Volkspark (public park) in Berlin's Mitte locality in the district of the same name and covers an area of 4.3 hectares (11 acres). It is bordered by Weinbergsweg to the southeast, Brunnenstraße to the southwest, Veteranenstraße to the northwest and Fehrbelliner Straße to the northeast. The name Weinberg (vineyard) goes back to the vineyards that formerly occupied the hill on which the park is now situated. Since the late 1970s, the park has been designated as a garden monument (Gartendenkmal).

The Hackesche Höfe is a notable courtyard complex situated adjacent to the Hackescher Markt in the centre of Berlin. The complex consists of eight interconnected courtyards, accessed through a main arched entrance at number 40 Rosenthaler Straße.The complex was designed in the Jugendstil (or Art Nouveau) style by August Endell, and the first courtyard is adorned with a magnificent facade of polychrome glazed brick. The construction of this project, launched in 1906, follows a pattern of clear separation between residential areas, crafts, trade and culture, which distinguishes it from the courtyards of the 19th century.In 1909 Kurt Hiller and Jakob van Hoddis established Der Neue Club here which hosted such events as the literary evenings they called the Neopathetisches Cabaret (Neo-pathetic Cabaret). These proved to be very popular, often attracting hundreds of spectators. There is a plaque commemorating van Hoddis as one of the victims of National Socialism at the Hackesche Höfe.

History Fritz Bühler (1862–1929) [1] and his wife Clara Bühler (1886–1971) [2] opened Bühler's Ballhaus on September 13, 1913, in the rear building at Auguststrasse 24/25. [3] The house was built around 1895 [4] with two halls [5] : the dance hall on the ground floor and the hall of mirrors on the upper floor. [6] After Fritz Bühler's death, Clara initially continued to run the dance hall, popularly known as Clärchens Ballhaus after its owner, on her own. In 1932 she married Arthur Habermann (1885-1967), who supported her in her work. [7] The front building was in World War IIdestroyed, [8] but operations resumed after the end of the war. Clärchens Ballhaus always remained a private company during the GDR era. [9] In 1965, after much pressure, the ruins of the former front building were removed, the area is still undeveloped today. From 1967 to 1989 the management of the ballroom went to Clärchen's stepdaughter Elfriede Wolff (daughter of Arthur Habermann). Then their son Stefan took over the business. After German reunification, Clara Habermann's biological daughter was granted the property, whose son in turn sold the building in 2003 as the next heir. The new owner, Hans-Joachim Sander, left the family business, which then ceased operations after 91 years. [10] After the previous operators left the Ballhaus on New Year's Eve 2004, Christian Schulz and David Regehr took over the location and left it largely unchanged. Since then, the space in front of the Ballhaus has also been managed, where the front building stood before the Second World War. [11] The hall of mirrors on the upper floor, which was only used as a storage room for years, has since been used as an event room. [12] In the summer of 2018 the house was bought by Yoram Roth. He chose the Berlin catering company Berlin Cuisine Jensen GmbH as a partner for the construction of a new restaurant and as the operator of the location, with which Clärchens Ballhaus reopened in July 2020. Importance Clärchen's ball house is one of the last remaining ball houses from around 1900 in Berlin. During the GDR era, it was known to both East and West Germans as a meeting place. In the media it was repeatedly represented in reports, for example in the film by Wilma Pradetto about the cloakroom operator Günter Schmidtke, in the documentary Edith bei Clärchen ( Andreas Kleinert 1985) or on ZDF . It also served as a filming location for movies Stauffenberg (2004), Inglourious Basterds(2009) and We Do It For Money (2014). In 2019 Max Raabe's MTV Unplugged concert was recorded in the Ballhaus . In addition to evening events, dance courses also take place in the Ballhaus.
