Hansa quarter, Residential district in Mitte, Germany.
The Hansaviertel district occupies 0.53 square kilometers between the Großer Tiergarten park and Spree River within central Berlin's Mitte borough.
Following extensive destruction during World War II, the district underwent reconstruction between 1957 and 1961 through the Interbau social housing initiative.
The streets in Hansaviertel received names from cities that participated in the medieval Hanseatic League, reflecting north German trading connections.
Residents and visitors access the district through Hansaplatz subway station on the U9 line, which connects to a shopping arcade and the Grips-Theater.
International architects including Walter Gropius, Oscar Niemeyer, and Alvar Aalto contributed distinct modernist residential buildings to the district's reconstruction.
