Postamt SW 11, Heritage monument in Kreuzberg, Berlin
The five-story building stands at the intersection of Möckernstraße and Hallesche Straße, featuring a limestone facade with travertine decorations and multiple columns.
Constructed between 1933 and 1936 under architects Kurt Kuhlow and Georg Werner, this structure served as Berlin's central mail distribution facility for southern districts.
The building represents a fusion of modernist architecture with classical elements, reflecting the architectural preferences of 1930s Germany in the Kreuzberg district.
After extensive renovations, the former postal facility now operates as the Crowne Plaza Hotel Berlin Potsdamer Platz, offering accommodations near central Berlin.
The building contained a double paternoster elevator system and connected to Anhalter Bahnhof through an underground tunnel for efficient mail transportation.
