Rathaus Schöneberg

The Rathaus Schöneberg is the city hall for the Borough of Schöneberg in Berlin.

After World War II, with Berlin divided, the Rote Rathaus (Red City Hall), the traditional seat of the Berlin government, was off limits to West Berlin. As a 'temporary' measure the Rathaus Schöneberg on Rudolph-Wilde-Platz became the city hall for West Berlin. After the re-unification, the Rote Rathaus has been once again the city hall for a united Berlin.

Rathaus Schöneberg on Rudolf-Wilde-Platz is the location where US President John F. Kennedy held his famous speech, proclaiming "Ich bin ein Berliner". Today the square is called Kennedy Platz, for President Kennedy.
