Europa-Center, Modern architectural complex near Breitscheidplatz, Berlin, Germany.
The Europa-Center stands 103 meters tall with 22 floors, featuring a shopping mall and office spaces in central Berlin's Charlottenburg district.
Built between 1963 and 1965 on the site of the former Romanisches Café, the complex marked Berlin's post-war reconstruction and economic development.
The center maintains exhibition spaces and architectural elements that reflect the design principles of 1960s German modernist construction methods.
The building complex contains 70 retail stores, restaurants, and entertainment venues, with direct access to public transportation at Breitscheidplatz.
A rotating Mercedes-Benz star weighing 15,000 kg crowns the building, while a 13-meter water clock measures time through flowing liquid.

The world's major shopping malls have become much more than just places to shop. People spend the day there, sometimes even the evening, between restaurants, attractions, and relaxation zones. Some host adventure parks, others museums, an ice rink, or a ski slope in a desert climate. Each complex tells something about its era and city. In Dubai, galleries compete with futuristic architecture. In Bangkok, centers combine luxury, cuisine, and entertainment. In North America, the spaces are so large they resemble full little cities with internal streets and themed zones. From continent to continent, these sites attract millions of visitors seeking new experiences. This selection brings together the most impressive centers, offering total immersion through large-scale shopping, varied entertainment, and ever-evolving scenery.
