Axel-Springer-Hochhaus, Office high-rise in Kreuzberg, Germany
The 78-meter tall Axel Springer building features 19 floors with a distinctive metal and glass facade designed by architect Melchiorre Bega.
The construction of this headquarters between 1959 and 1965 marked a period of reconstruction in Berlin during the Cold War division.
The building stands as a center for German media operations, housing editorial offices and broadcasting facilities for major publications like Bild and Welt.
The structure contains 52,000 square meters of office space across 13 floors, including two underground levels, accommodating over 3,000 workstations.
A 45-meter high atrium divides the building into north and south sections, with terraced lower floors and five upper levels suspended from the roof structure.
