Berlin Pavilion (Hansaviertel)
The Berlin Pavilion is located on the corner of Strasse des 17. Juni on the corner of Klopstockstrasse in the Hansaviertel district of Berlin . It was built in 1957 by Hermann Fehling , Daniel Gogel and Peter Pfankuch for the Interbau International Building Exhibition and is a listed building . The pavilion, built as the entrance hall to Interbau, housed an exhibition on the reconstruction of Berlin's Hansaviertel in 1957. After the end of Interbau, building plans by the Senate - in particular the city motorway - were shown as architectural models on a scale of 1: 1000. In addition to the 450 m² exhibition space, the low-rise building had several conference rooms and a restaurant.
After Daniel Gogel added a kitchen, cellar and staff rooms in 1987, the building was used by the Senate Building Department until 2003 to hold exhibitions. After the sale by the Liegenschaftsfonds in 2003, it was converted by the architects Petra and Paul Kahlfeldt for the new use as a branch of Burger King , which finally opened in December 2005. Skeptical statements and fears about the sale and renovation have not been confirmed, as the architecture has hardly changed despite the renovation.
In 1966, the artist Ben Wagin named himself a “tree sponsor” at the Berlin pavilion and thus began his artistic commitment to the human environment.
In front of the pavilion were some exhibits from the Gaslaternen-Freilichtmuseum Berlin , an exhibition of 90 historical and modern gas lights .
