Husemannstrasse Description
Berlin's Husemannstrasse leads north from Kollwitzplatz. It has been tastefully renovated, and its old shops and inns give a good impression of what Berlin looked like at the beginning of this century. However, the attractiveness of this street is in stark contrast with the decay all around it.

A hairdressing museum has been laid out on the ground floor of the house at No. 8 Husemannstrasse. It displays an extraordinary collection of barbers' and hairdressers' tools and equipment, a medieval barber's salon, ornaments for the hair from a full-bottomed wig to a pigtail, and also a pedal-driven dentist's drill.
