KARL-MARX-ALLEE
Avenue d'Allemagne near Alexanderplatz, now home to gigantic apartments, cafés and restaurants
A little Moscow air in this boulevard of Friedrichshain. The Karl-Marx-Allee (Stalinallee until 1961) is East Berlin's most prestigious avenue: its colossal buildings feature neoclassical facades and decorative elements celebrating workers and peasants. It was a popular shopping street in the GDR era, and its landmark addresses (Café Moskau, Café Sibylle, Karl-Marx bookshop, etc.) have since had to be closed down. There is still the International Kino...
This is not to be confused with Karl-Marx-Straße in the district of Neukölln (in West Berlin).
