Borsigplatz, Historic square in northern Dortmund, Germany
The circular traffic square measures 40 meters in diameter, surrounded by residential buildings from the industrial period of Dortmund's development.
The square gained importance during the 1909 founding of Borussia Dortmund football club, when members gathered at a local bar to establish the organization.
The neighborhood reflects German industrial heritage through its preserved architecture and stands as a center of multicultural community life in northern Dortmund.
Visitors can reach Borsigplatz via U-Bahn station Borsigplatz, with regular connections to central Dortmund and surrounding areas throughout the day.
Borussia Dortmund supporters traditionally celebrate their team's victories by forming large parades around the square's circular layout.
