Die Palme, Cultural heritage complex in Prenzlauer Berg, Germany.

The Die Palme facility consists of multiple red and yellow brick buildings forming a substantial institutional complex in northeastern Berlin.

Architects Hermann Blankenstein and Vinzent Dylewski designed this municipal shelter in 1886, initially functioning as both a hospital and accommodation for homeless individuals.

The complex represents late 19th century social welfare architecture and includes specific sections for different groups, reflecting the period's approach to public assistance.

The facility contained 40 dormitories for single occupants and separate family accommodations, providing temporary shelter and basic meals to those in need.

The building received its name from a decorative palm tree that stood at its entrance, marking it as a recognizable landmark in Berlin's social services landscape.
