Knaack-Klub, Nightclub in Prenzlauer Berg, Germany
The Knaack-Klub occupied two floors in a former brewery building on Greifswalder Street, featuring a concert hall and dance areas.
Founded in 1952 as a youth center named after communist resistance fighter Ernst Knaack, the venue evolved from a table tennis facility to a music club.
The venue hosted early performances of German bands Rammstein and Die Toten Hosen, along with international acts like Snow Patrol and Keane.
The club closed in 2010 due to noise restrictions requiring events to end at 11 PM and sound levels to stay below 25 decibels in neighboring apartments.
New residential construction and subsequent noise complaints led to the term 'clubsterben' describing the phenomenon of Berlin clubs closing due to gentrification.
