Laubenganghäuser Karl-Marx-Allee, Cultural heritage monument in Friedrichshain, Germany.

The Laubenganghäuser residential complex features five-story buildings with aligned launders facing Karl-Marx-Allee, creating a structured grid pattern with column openings.

Constructed between 1949 and 1951 by architects Hans Scharoun, Ludmilla Herzenstein, Karl Brockschmidt, and Helmut Riedel as part of East Berlin's post-war reconstruction efforts.

The buildings represent early post-war architectural development in East Berlin, reflecting the transition from Bauhaus-influenced modernism to socialist residential design principles.

The residential units consist primarily of one-room apartments with kitchens and bathrooms positioned along the launders, while living spaces face the southern direction.

These structures formed the initial phase of the Residential Cell of Friedrichshain, marking a departure from pre-war urban planning concepts in Berlin.
