Since March 17, 2011, the square has been named after Friedrich Hollaender , a German composer, writer, director, theater director, cabaret artist and actor.

The Friedrich-Hollaender-Platz was called Rankeplatz from 1901 to 2011 , named after the historian Franz Leopold von Ranke .

Position and extent

The square is located south of Lietzenburger Strasse , which closes the triangle in Charlottenburg , which is spanned in the district between Joachimsthaler Strasse (no. 24) and Rankestrasse (no. 17 and 18), the site at Rankestrasse 16a in the middle of the square is undeveloped. Bundesallee goes off from the south end of the square . No properties are assigned to the site itself. The new furniture is very concrete and does not encourage you to stay. The stele with biographical data shows a snapshot, mainly showing Marlene Dietrich and Friedrich Hollaender at the bottom. The “ceremonial inauguration” of the square took place on June 18, 2012 in the presence of Friedrich Hollaender's daughter Melodie Hollaender.
