Vox-Haus, Radio broadcast office building at Potsdamer Platz, Germany.

The Vox-Haus stood as a five-story steel-framed structure near Potsdamer Platz, featuring two broadcasting antenna masts on its roof for radio transmission purposes.

The building marked the beginning of German radio broadcasting in 1923 when Funk-Stunde Berlin started regular transmissions from its attic facilities on October 29.

The Vox-Haus functioned as the central location for German radio development, housing sound recording facilities and broadcasting operations throughout the 1920s.

The building underwent several renovations by architect Otto Rudolf Salvisberg, transforming the fourth floor into a sound recording complex and adapting spaces for broadcast needs.

After sustaining damage during World War II and being restored, the Vox-Haus remained until 1971 when authorities demolished it due to its location near the Berlin Wall.
