Berlin - Märkisches Ufer

The road known as Märkisches Ufer in Berlin extends along the south bank of the River Spree east of Fischerinsel (Fishermen's Island), which was the oldest residential part of medieval Cölln but is now built up with blocks of flats.

There are still some old and historically valuable buildings remaining along this road.

No. 48 near Jannowitzbrücke was in 1919 the Headquarters of the People's Marine Division, which was the armed branch of the Workers' and Soldiers' Council in the revolutionary struggles of 1918-19.

No. 54 Märkisches Ufer is the Berlin Congress Center: tel. 2 78 20.
