historically relevant remnants with the new. Past and present should not compete but
equally contribute to the distinctive atmosphere of the new Tacheles. This has resulted
in a productive heterogeneity, allowing the richness of the place to be experienced
anew. Unlike the public museums in the vicinity, Fotografiska Berlin is open daily until
11 p.m., allowing visitors to combine their exhibition tour with a visit to a restaurant
or bar. A row of shops with a bakery, café and a store on the ground floor opens the
museum to the city, connecting it with the surrounding Mitte district. The new exhibiti-
on spaces of Fotografiska are spread across the third, fourth and fifth floors. The former
“Golden Hall” with its double-height ceiling is located on the first floor. In the Tacheles
era, theatre performances took place here. Today, a multifunctional ballroom has been Grundriss 5. Obergeschoss • Floor plan level +5
created that is suitable for concerts, performances, cinema screenings, presentations
and other events. Technical connections and air conditioning are discreetly integrated
into the historic structure. In the fall of 2023, the fine-dining restaurant Veronika ope-
ned on the fourth floor, where elegant solid wood tables are arranged around a large
free-standing bar. Here too, the reinforced concrete structure of the former department
store is left visible on the ceilings. A bar associated with the restaurant, featuring casual
chairs and sofas in a lounge-like ambiance, is located on the fifth floor above. In the
new pyramid-like roof of the building, the exclusive Rooftop Bar Clara has just opened,
affording a panoramic view of the city skyline through floor-to-ceiling sliding doors
and windows. Through this generous opening towards the urban space and diverse
use, the former Kunsthaus Tacheles, which epitomises the experimental spirit of post-
reunification Berlin like no other place, has been given a new lease of life. Grundriss 6. Obergeschoss • Floor plan level +6
