Kreuzberg
Kreuzberg is Berlin's multicultural heartbeat and counterculture epicenter, home to one of Europe's largest Turkish communities. From the famous 1980s squatter movement to today's vibrant street art scene, Kreuzberg maintains its edgy, alternative spirit while the Landwehr Canal offers a picturesque backdrop for world-class dining at Markthalle Neun.

Artists, activists, and adventurous foodies love Kreuzberg's 24-hour energy.

Evenings feature Ottorink's German wines and Südblock's LGBTQ+ events.
