Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Administrative borough in eastern Berlin, Germany.
The district extends along both sides of the River Spree, encompassing former East and West Berlin sectors with numerous residential areas and parks.
The fusion of Friedrichshain and Kreuzberg districts in 2001 marked the unification of areas previously divided by the Berlin Wall for 28 years.
The district houses multiple art galleries, music venues, and international restaurants, reflecting the mix of German and Turkish communities in the area.
Public transportation connects all parts of the district through the U-Bahn lines U1 and U3, complemented by numerous bus routes and bicycle paths.
The annual vegetable battle on Oberbaum Bridge involves residents from both sides of the district throwing tomatoes and cucumbers at each other.
