Rathaus Nikolassee

Rathaus Nikolassee is a town hall and fire station in Steglitz-Zehlendorf built in the early 20th century with red brick walls and light stone details. The building at Hohenzollernplatz 5 combines administrative and emergency services under one roof, with its exterior showing characteristic design elements of that period.

The building was constructed between 1912 and 1913 and formed part of Nikolassee's development as Berlin expanded into its suburbs. It marked a turning point when the growing residential area gained essential local infrastructure.

The town hall has long served as a focal point for neighborhood gatherings and local administrative matters in Nikolassee. Its location in the district made it a natural meeting place where residents came to handle community affairs.

Trams and buses provide connections to the square, while the nearest S-Bahn station at Nikolassee is within walking distance. The area is easily accessible and the neighborhood can be explored on foot.

The building functions simultaneously as a town hall and active fire station, a dual role it has maintained as the neighborhood evolved. This combination of municipal and emergency services under one roof remains an unusual arrangement for buildings of this type.
