Friedrich-Ebert-Siedlung, Residential complex in Wedding district, Berlin, Germany
The Friedrich-Ebert-Siedlung extends across Swakopmunder Strasse, Windhuker Strasse, and Petersallee, containing 1,400 apartments with standardized floor plans and loggias.
Construction began in 1929 when Louise Ebert, widow of Germany's first president Friedrich Ebert, laid the foundation stone during a ceremony with Chancellor Gustav Bauer.
The complex represents the New Objectivity architectural movement through its unadorned facades, flat roofs, and cubic shapes arranged in linear formations.
Most units consist of two rooms with a chamber, kitchen, bathroom, and balcony, while the settlement connects to public transport via Müllerstrasse.
The settlement sits within Berlin's African Quarter, where street names reflect colonial history, though some were renamed in 2018 to honor anti-colonial activists.
