Markthalle IV

Markthalle IV is a market hall in the Dorotheenstadt district of Berlin-Mitte with two levels accessible through multiple entrances at Dorotheenstraße 29 and Reichstagufer 84 and 12-14. The structure spans both ground and basement areas for commerce and storage.

The building was constructed in 1913 as a market hall and served for many years as a trading place for Berlin residents. In the 1990s it was converted into the Press and Information Office headquarters of the German Federal Government.

The building displays typical early 20th-century Berlin market architecture, with high ceilings and large windows that bring daylight into the sales space. This design was necessary at the time to protect goods from weather while drawing many buyers.

The hall is centrally located in Berlin-Mitte and is easily accessible by public transportation, with several entrances around the building. Visitors should note that the monument is protected by law and receives regular maintenance.

The building preserved its original architectural elements while completely changing its function from a trading place to a government center. This transformation shows how historic structures can be adapted to new purposes.
