Tiergartenstrasse 4, Memorial site in Tiergarten district, Berlin, Germany
Tiergartenstrasse 4 is a gray building in Berlin that now serves as a memorial documenting systematic medical crimes that took place from 1940 to 1945. The structure displays exhibitions, information panels, and features a blue glass installation on the ground floor that runs through the interior space.
The building served as the central coordination point from 1940 to 1945 for the systematic medical crimes known as Operation T4. This address became the administrative hub that directed the entire program across German institutions.
The site serves as a place where visitors learn how medical staff and administrators became involved in crimes against vulnerable patients in institutions. The displays help people understand the human impact of these systematic wrongs through personal accounts and family stories.
The location is easily accessible by public transit, particularly the S-Bahn at Bellevue station or buses along Tiergartenstrasse. Guided tours are available upon request and provide deeper insight into the exhibition and historical context.
The 24-meter blue glass wall running through the ground floor was deliberately designed to convey the systematic and detached nature of the crimes. This artistic element communicates the clinical coldness of administrative decisions in a way that words alone cannot.
