Böhmisches Brauhaus

Böhmisches Brauhaus is a red brick brewery complex in Friedrichshain with multiple buildings stretching along two streets. The compound includes a malthouse, brewing equipment areas, and extensive underground vaults used for storing beer.

The complex was founded in 1868 and quickly grew into one of Berlin's major breweries of that era. After World War II, the site was converted to different uses and never returned to beer production.

The name reflects the Bohemian brewing tradition that the founders brought to Berlin. Visitors can still see how the buildings and layout reveal the daily work of beer production and storage.

The complex sits at the intersection of two busy streets and is accessible by public transit. Keep in mind that parts of the site continue to serve as storage facilities and other purposes, so access to certain areas may be limited.

The site operated a large restaurant called Elysium that could seat hundreds of guests. This establishment made the brewery into a social gathering place rather than just a production facility.
