Circus Busch-Roland, Entertainment venue in Berlin-Mitte, Germany.
The circular structure accommodated 4,300 spectators and featured performances ranging from acrobatics to animal training in its permanent building until 1937.
Founded in 1884 by Paul Busch in Denmark, the circus relocated to Germany in 1891, establishing its main building in Berlin by 1895.
The circus building served as a meeting point for workers' and soldiers' councils in November 1918, where the German Republic was declared.
The circus merged with Circus Roland in 1963 due to financial challenges, continuing operations as Circus Busch-Roland until 2018.
Famous escapologist Harry Houdini performed at the circus building in 1908, adding to its reputation as a premier entertainment destination.
