Markthalle IX

Markthalle IX is a market hall in Kreuzberg with spacious covered areas where vendors offer fresh produce, handcrafted goods, and international foods. The building contains multiple sections arranged to create distinct shopping zones and places to linger.

The building was designed in 1891 by architect Hermann Blankenstein as one of Berlin's purpose-built market halls for the city. It was part of a system of markets that the city developed during the 19th century to modernize food distribution.

The Thursday evening events have become a gathering place where people from across the city explore street food and international cuisines together. The space functions as a meeting point for different food cultures, where neighbors and visitors share tables and discover new flavors.

The market is open Tuesday through Saturday and is easy to reach by public transport from the nearby Görlitzer Bahnhof subway station. The covered halls provide shelter while shopping, making it comfortable to browse regardless of weather.

Inside the building is a cheese-making facility where visitors can watch milk transform into handcrafted cheese varieties. This small-scale production demonstrates traditional methods that have largely disappeared elsewhere in the city.
