It was created in the late 1990s, when GDR buildings in Berlin were frequently renovated and ailing balcony parts were removed. There are around 500 m² of climbing space available on an area of ​​around 10 meters × 10 meters. The climbing tower is surrounded by a boulder wall, which has about 400 m² of climbing surface. The rock offers levels of difficulty from UIAA 4+ to 10− on 43 different routes , with the lower area often being more difficult due to the lack of screwed handles. It was completed in 1998 and renovated in 2015.
