The Eislebener road is in Berlin's City West area, this small residential street. The road land and the northern side of the street belong to the district of Charlottenburg , while the properties on the southern side of the street are in the district of Wilmersdorf . Although it is relatively short, the Roaring Twenties left cultural traces on Eislebener Strasse, just like in the surrounding streets; the street was temporarily the seat of the Rowohlt publishing house , housed a well-known artists' pub and was the residence of Bertolt Brecht in the early 1920s .
During the Second World War , the buildings on the southern side of the street were badly damaged. Today the street is primarily a residential street.
Plant and New West
Eislebener Strasse was not yet shown in the first Berlin development plan , the Hobrecht Plan from 1862, which outlined the planning basis of the entire “ New West ”. It was laid out between 1893 and 1896 and named on February 14, 1895 after the town of Eisleben , the place of birth and death of Martin Luther . The street is around 270 meters long and is one of the connecting streets between Rankestraße and Nürnberger Straße . Administratively, the northern side of the street belongs to the Charlottenburg district and the southern side of the street to the Wilmersdorf district .
The Roaring Twenties
At the beginning of the 20th century the Eislebener was a home-style address. Like many of the other streets around, Eislebener Strasse was characterized by artistic bohemia in the 1920s and early 1930s . The small café “Die Lunte” resided in a former cigar shop at Eislebener Straße 11. Gerhard Bienert called it “probably the most wicked, cheapest of the artist pubs”, the renowned photographer Umbo took photos here, and well-known visitors were Joseph Roth and Géza von Cziffra or Julius Hay .
During his first two visits to Berlin from February to March 1920 (he broke off the visit because of the Kapp Putsch ) and from November 1921 to April 1922, Bertolt Brecht stayed at 13 Eislebener Strasse with the publicist Frank Warschauer . From here he made important contacts that made his first successes possible, for example with the writers Hermann Kasack and Arnolt Bronnen or the critic Herbert Ihering , and looked for the first publishers and theaters that were willing to work with him. From here he wrote to a friend "I live well, just a little cold". The house in which he lived was somewhat damaged in the Second World War in 1943, rebuilt in 1954 and is still there today.
After having had its headquarters in the nearby Passauer Straße since 1929 , Ernst Rowohlt Verlag moved to Eislebener Straße 7 on April 1, 1935. It was the last seat of the publishing house in Berlin before its state-enforced takeover by the Deutsche Verlagsanstalt from 1939.
National Socialism and World War II

The Holocaust reached Eislebener Strasse in 1942. Two stumbling blocks in front of house numbers 4 and 9 remind us today of Katharina Finder and Elisabeth Behrend, who were only deported to Theresienstadt concentration camp in 1942 and then murdered in 1943 and 1944 respectively.
During the Second World War, Eislebener Strasse suffered severe damage from Allied air raids . At the end of the war, the southern side of the road was almost completely destroyed, but the northern side was hardly affected.
Post-war and present
Nowadays Eislebener Strasse is a comparatively inconspicuous and quiet residential street, which is mainly characterized by residential buildings and only a few small hotels and restaurants. At the eastern end there is access to the Augsburger Straße underground station, which opened in 1961 .
In addition to the residential buildings, there are a few offices, catering establishments and a dental practice.
The “Brandenburger Hof” hotel, a small five-star hotel, was located at Eislebener Strasse 14 . The restaurant "Die Quadriga", which was awarded one star in 2012 and whose former chefs a. a. Bobby Bräuer , Sauli Kemppainen and Mario Kotaska were. The traditional hotel was taken over in 2014 by the " Dormero " hotel chain. The hotel has been operating under the name DORMERO Hotel Berlin Ku'damm since January 2015.
