Hermannplatz, Public square in Neukölln, Germany.

Hermannplatz is a public square in Neukölln where several major streets intersect, creating a central gathering point for the neighborhood. The area is defined by a large Karstadt department store that anchors the space and draws people daily.

The square grew out of a stretch of the old road from Berlin via Rixdorf to Mittenwalde, at a crossing on the southern edge of the Spree valley. An inn already stood on its south side when Richardsdorf passed to Cölln in 1543; around 1737 the Rollkrug was built there, giving the place the name Platz am Rollkrug. It was renamed Hermannplatz on 9 September 1885, and the Rollkrug was demolished in 1907 for a commercial building whose portal on Hermannstraße still reads "Rollkrug".

A market with around thirty stalls runs on the square Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday until 4 p.m. Traders sell food from the Spreewald and the Mediterranean, plus organic produce, sausage, fish, flowers, textiles and watches. The name refers to Hermann the Cherusker, though many locals long assumed it honoured the Rixdorf mayor Hermann Boddin.

The square functions as a major transportation hub with two U-Bahn lines and multiple bus connections operating throughout the day and night. Getting around Berlin from this point is straightforward thanks to these diverse transit options.

The Karstadt store, designed by Philipp Schaefer and built from 1927 to 1929, rose 32 metres above Hermannplatz and covered 72,000 m², making it one of Europe's most modern department stores of its day. Spared by Allied bombing, it was destroyed on 25 April 1945 by the Waffen-SS so that its stocks would not fall to the Red Army; rebuilding under Alfred Busse began in 1950.
