    Friedrichstrasse station was the border crossing point to West Berlin during GDR times. From here, S-Bahn, U-Bahn or long-distance trains from the GDR to West Berlin. The former exit hall of this border crossing point was popularly known as the "Tränenpalast" (Palace of Tears) in Berlin because of the tears shed here when the visit to the West was said goodbye.

      A street with an eventful history.
      Friedrichstrasse runs straight as a north-south axis through downtown Berlin in the center of Berlin. It begins in the north at the Oranienburger Tor in Mitte and ends in Kreuzberg at Mehringplatz.


      Elector Friedrich III had the street, known in the 17th century as Querstrasse, renamed with his name. The street has an eventful history: it was the scene of numerous fights, a trading place for gems and gold, and a center for prostitution. With the construction of the train station in 1882, Friedrichstrasse gained further importance.
