It was first mentioned in a document in 1624, making it the oldest forge in Berlin that still produces forged goods. Whether simple nails, exclusive home accessories or high-quality tools and knives - the finest and most rustic objects are created here.

The historic smithy, which is located in the middle of Richardplatz, was first mentioned in 1624. It originally belonged to a blacksmith from Berlin who came here once a week. In 1797, a blacksmith settled here, and his descendants ran the smithy for over 150 years. It is still in operation, although mainly in the artistic and restoration sector; the "Women's Meeting Point Blacksmith" is located in the blacksmith's former home. The smithy takes part in the traditional Alt-Rixdorf Christmas market every year.

In addition to restorations, Berlin's oldest smithy offers e.g. also blacksmithing courses.

Opening hours from Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
