Berlin - Tempelhof

Tempelhof

The district Tempelhof is mainly made accessible by the metro line U6 and the S-Bahn (Suburban railway) line S2 that travel through the district and the inner city up to the north until the state Brandenburg.

Since 2008, Tempelhofer Feld has been the official name of the site of the former Tempelhof Airport in Berlin, which is now used as a park and recreational area; Today, the area offers a six-kilometre bicycle, skating and jogging path, two and a half hectares of barbecue area, a four-hectare dog meadow and a huge picnic area.

The Antik-Stuben in the Kunigundeneck in the Kunigundenstraße with the appendant gallery “Kunst und Genuss” (German for: Art and Enjoyment) is a mix of bar, restaurant, flea market and art gallery.

The Ullsteinhaus is considered a landmark of Tempelhof. Back then the building opposite the Tempelhof harbour at the Teltowkanal was the residence of the Ullstein publisher for publishing and printing purposes. During the Third Reich the building has been renamed into “Deutsches Haus” due to its Jewish origin. After the middle of the 1990’s it has been extended by a new building. Today the Ullsteinhaus includes mainly diverse service enterprises.
