Strausberger Platz, Heritage square in Friedrichshain, Germany.

Strausberger Platz forms a circular intersection where Karl-Marx-Allee meets Lichtenberger Straße, featuring a central fountain and architectural elements from post-war construction.

The square marked the beginning of the 1953 East German uprising when workers gathered to protest against increased labor requirements imposed by the government.

The buildings surrounding the plaza display the formal architectural principles of 1960s East Berlin, with detailed facades and structured spatial arrangements.

The square connects to public transportation through its dedicated metro station and serves as a junction point for federal roads B1 and B5.

The oval roundabout configuration of Strausberger Platz creates a distinct spatial arrangement that differs from traditional Berlin square layouts.
