Today we take a Bike Ride from Frankfurter Tor to Strausberger Platz taking the Karl Mary Allee.
Karl-Marx-Allee is a street in the Berlin districts of Mitte and Friedrichshain, named after the and social theorist Karl Marx.
The longer, Friedrichshain section is characterized by apartment blocks and towers in a mix of Socialist Classicism and Prussian Schinkelschule, which was built in the 1950s as Stalinallee. The tower buildings at the Frankfurt Gate and Strausberger Platz by the architect Hermann Henselmann are the urban planning highlights of the complex. The section in Mitte is dominated by prefabricated buildings from the 1960s.
The street was originally called the Berliner ZollmauerGroßes Frankfurter Straße west of the Frankfurt gate (for example, the intersection with the street of the Paris Commune) and was built on 21 January. December 1949 on the occasion of the celebrations of Joseph Stalin’s 70th. Together with Frankfurter Allee, which followed to the east, renamed Stalinallee. Since the 13th It is called Karl-Marx-Allee in November 1961. The Frankfurt avenue was simultaneously separated again under its old name, although it has not since started at the original Frankfurt Gate, but on the square further east, which was named in 1957 as the name of the same name.[1] The residential buildings, which extend from Strausberger Platz to Frankfurter Tor, were conceived as workers’ palaces and were to represent the strength and engineering of the GDR.
