Infobox, Information center in Mitte, Germany.

The Info-Box was a temporary red structure elevated on stilts above the construction site at Potsdamer Platz. Its interior contained exhibition spaces with models, photographs, and displays explaining the planned development projects that were reshaping the area.

This structure was created following an architectural competition and opened in 1995 to document Berlin's reunification and urban renewal. It was designed as a temporary installation that would be removed once the surrounding construction projects neared completion.

The name Info-Box was also written Info-Box, Info Box and InfoBox. Inside, three levels held exhibition and lecture rooms plus a café, and two outdoor staircases led up to the roof terrace at 23 metres. The pavilion won the Stahlbaupreis and the Architekturpreis Berlin, both in 1996.

The building was easy to spot due to its red color and elevated position above street level, making it visible from far away. Visitors could move through different exhibition levels to survey the entire construction site from above.

After the pavilion was dismantled in January 2001, 300 of its red cladding panels were individually numbered and auctioned off. Some preserved parts were reused to build a small viewing tower in Frankfurt am Main, in front of the office of its architects, Schneider + Schumacher.
