Sankt Oberholz-Berlin-Venue of the digital Bohéme

St. Oberholz in Berlin from Yollarda on Vimeo.

Franz Bieberkopf was here
Drank his beer
Go to the ladiesrooms in St. Oberholz
Refresh your lipstick

Listening to Hans Paetsch
Reading Hui Buh
The story of Balduin, the knight
Transformed to the ghost of a castle

Once upon a time in the 1970th
When we were watching Hitparade
And listening to the Radio
Of the British Military Forces in Germany

The Aischinger brothers August and Carl opened the first public venues for drinking beer in Berlin 1892. The building at Rosenthaler Platz was the ninth place, built in 1898, where you could have snacks and a beer for 10 Pfennig (5 Cent). Alfred Döblin describes the place in his novel “Berlin Alexanderplatz”. Aischinger lost their good name with taking over the “”Haus Vaterland” from the jewish Kempinski Family. In 1947 when the building was in the Sowjet ruled sector it got part of the state owned gastronomy HO. After the reunification 1989 Burger King owned the beautiful building, later it got a table dance bar. In 2005 Ansgar Oberholz opened a venue for the digital Bohéme. Young Creatives from Germany and from all over the world come to live and work here and around Rosenthaler Platz.

St. Elisabeth church: Spray for me!



St. Elisabeth church was built by Karl-Friedrich Schinkel (1781-1841) on behalf of the Prussian king Friedrich Wilhelm III. (1770-1840). During the Sevond WW the management of the church was dominated by people close to the Nazis. The building was heavily damaged during the bombing of Berlin 1945.

As a part of the Sophiengemeinde the church and the main building beside are hosting cultural events and include a Kindergarten nowadays. The 7th Berlin Biennale is using the church as a venue for its “Draftmen’s congress”. Artists are working there and coaching children exploring their talents as well.

Murderer’s Café

The speciality of Murderer’s Café is “cold dog”. It’s a cake out of cookies and chocolate. It was invented by the cookie firm Bahlsen in the 60th. Easy to prepare, greasy and sweet to eat. Perfect symbol for a society full of contradictions. Growing economy, conservative society, student riots, fashist police, cold war along with small cafes and chewing gum vending mashines.
