Mexikoplatz, Square and garden monument in Steglitz-Zehlendorf, Germany.

Mexikoplatz is a square and garden monument in Steglitz-Zehlendorf, defined by two fountains, mature trees, and symmetrical green spaces. The surrounding residences display detailed country house facades that reflect the era of its development.

The station Zehlendorf-Beerenstraße was built in 1904/05 by the architects Hart & Lesser on the Berlin–Potsdam line, serving the surrounding Zehlendorf-West colony. From 1905 to 1907 the forecourt was laid out as an ornamental square with residential and commercial buildings. The square remained unnamed until 1959, when it was named Mexikoplatz after the surrounding streets named for Central and South American countries and capitals.

The square was unnamed until 1959, when it was named Mexikoplatz after the surrounding streets, some of which are named for Central and South American countries and capitals. The Argentine Avenue divides the square into two mirrored halves.

The square lies directly in front of Mexikoplatz station, served by S-Bahn line S1 toward Potsdam. The station building by Hart & Lesser stands at the head of the square, so arriving by train puts you at the centre of the ensemble. The Argentine Avenue splits the grounds into two mirrored halves.

The station building was designed by the architects Hart & Lesser and opened in 1904/05 as Zehlendorf-Beerenstraße station, serving the new Zehlendorf-West colony. In 1987, for Berlin's 750th anniversary, it was renamed Mexikoplatz and the square was restored and listed as a garden monument.
