Oranienplatz, Public square and garden monument in Kreuzberg, Germany

Oranienplatz incorporates landscaped gardens and pathways that connect several major streets, including Legiendamm, Dresdener Straße, and Oranienstraße in central Berlin.

Architects Peter Joseph Lenné and Erwin Barth designed this square in the 19th century, establishing it as a significant example of Berlin's urban planning development.

From 2012 to 2014, the square became the center of the OPlatz Movement, which brought attention to immigration policies and refugee rights in Germany.

The square provides direct access to multiple public transportation options and is surrounded by numerous cafes, shops, and residential buildings.

Several art installations and memorials dedicated to social justice causes are permanently displayed throughout the square, reflecting the neighborhood's political engagement.
