Linienstraße (Dortmund)

South entrance to Bordellstraße Linienstraße with screen

The line street is a brothel road north of Dortmund's main train station in Dortmund District Downtown North .

Linienstraße has served as a contact point for clients from Dortmund and the surrounding area since 1904 . The street is about 200 meters long and the access to Linienstraße is separated from other public spaces by a screen. A sign with a reference to a law from 1957 that is no longer relevant allows access for adults only. In Linienstraße you will mostly find apartment prostitution , whereby the services and prices are usually negotiated on the windows .

Until 2017, Studio X , a larger complex with porn cinemas and a sex shop, was located nearby .
