Bundespressestrand, Urban beach in Mitte, Berlin, Germany
Located between government buildings, Bundespressestrand stretches along the Spree River with sand areas and views of the Reichstag and Chancellery.
The beach club opened in 2003 near the Federal Press Conference building and operated until 2011, covering 5000 square meters with 120 tons of sand.
The beach became a meeting point for politicians, journalists, and citizens, hosting events, exhibitions, and regular salsa music nights on Thursdays.
The facilities included a two-story pavilion with a bar, terrace, dance floor, volleyball court, playground, and numerous seating areas.
During special events, visitors could use washing machines installed by Siemens, making a humorous reference to the nearby Chancellery building.
