A fascinating online walk in the Hackescher Markt.
The area where the square is located today was originally marshland. It was not until the demolition of the moat that the Berlin city commander Count Hans Christoph Friedrich von Hacke had the square laid out by order of Frederick II around 1750. It quickly became known as the Hackesche Markt (until 1872 Hackesche Markt), yet it was not officially named until July 23, 1840.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the square developed into an inner-city hub thanks to access by public transportation. Near the square was the Berlin Stock Exchange, after which the S-Bahn station on the square was named. During the Second World War, part of the buildings surrounding the square were destroyed. The square, located in East Berlin after the German division and now characterized by gaps between buildings, lost importance in the slipstream of the newly rebuilt city center at Alexanderplatz in the 1960s.
After the reunification of Germany and Berlin in 1990, the existing old buildings were renovated and the gaps between buildings were closed. Most of the square area was redesigned as a pedestrian zone. Various gastronomic establishments of all kinds settled on the square and in the viaduct arches of the train station as well as along the streets leading to it, so that Hackescher Markt became the starting point of an entertainment district. Today, the square is used as a beer garden and a weekly market.
