Bötzow-Brauerei

The Bötzow-Brauerei extends across 24,000 square meters, featuring remaining production buildings, former beer gardens, and architectural elements from its industrial past.

Julius Bötzow established the brewery in 1864, developing it into Berlin's largest private beer producer with an annual output of 210,000 hectoliters by the 1880s.

A bronze medallion and memorial stone at the former beer garden commemorate Karl Liebknecht and the revolutionary events of January 1919.

The complex undergoes renovation under architect David Chipperfield, with the first new office building scheduled for completion in early 2025.

The grounds contain 150-year-old ivy growing on property walls and original tree species including elm, lime, and horse chestnut from the 1880s.
