Zentralvieh- und Schlachthof, Cultural heritage monument in Friedrichshain, Germany

The Zentralvieh- und Schlachthof complex encompasses extensive buildings between Eldenaer Street and Landsberger Allee, featuring notable architectural elements from the late 19th century.

Berlin authorities commissioned architects Hermann Blankenstein and August Lindemann to design this central livestock market and slaughterhouse, which opened its operations in March 1881.

The transformation of this industrial site reflects Berlin's evolution, with former livestock auction halls now serving as residential spaces and commercial establishments.

The facility's strategic position near the railway ring facilitated the daily transportation of up to 15,000 animals for processing and distribution throughout Berlin.

The preserved steel skeleton of the sheep auction hall stands as a structural element within the Hermann-Blankenstein Park, integrating industrial heritage into green spaces.
