Malplaquetstraße

Malplaquetstraße is a street in Wedding, Berlin, lined with traditional residential buildings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries and paved with cobblestones. It runs between Seestraße and Nazarethkirchstraße, shaping the neighborhood with its continuous row of facades that define the streetscape.

The street was named in 1891 to commemorate a European military battle. By the late 19th century, Wedding was rapidly developing into a housing district for workers and their families.

The Karl-Schrader-Haus represents an early social housing movement and serves today as a neighborhood gathering place. The facades tell of a time when people deliberately created homes designed for shared community life.

The street is easy to explore on foot and connects smoothly with nearby train stations and bus stops. You will find cafes, restaurants, and shops for daily needs along the way, making a relaxed visit straightforward.

Two protected Lauchhammer fountains stand at the corner with Utrechter Straße, displaying decorative craftsmanship from that era. These fountains are small treasures that many passersby overlook.
