The Hackesche Höfe are a central point of contact for the Berlin scene and for tourists - a mixture of offices, hip trades and apartments. Here and in the immediate vicinity you will find numerous bars, cafes, restaurants and clubs as well as a small cinema.

Since there are hardly any parking spaces around the courtyards, the best way to get here is by public transport.

The Hackesche Höfe, Berlin
The Hackesche Höfe are located in the Spandauer Vorstadt in the Mitte district (Mitte district) of Berlin, not far from the so-called Scheunenviertel. They have been under monument protection since 1977.
In 1672 a Jewish cemetery was laid out north of the Spree in front of the Spandauer Tor. In the same year, the elector ordered in a decree that all barns for hay and straw be moved outside the Berlin city wall in order to reduce the risk of fire in the city area. Both measures changed the agricultural area immediately in front of the Berlin fortifications. A new district gradually developed, later known as the Spandau suburb. The term Scheunenviertel for part of the area has survived to the present day.
In 1750, Frederick the Great commissioned his city commander, Hans Christoph Graf von Hacke, to have some of the open spaces in the half-developed district built on. This resulted in a marketplace named after the count, today's Hackesche Markt. In the 19th century, the overpopulated Scheunenviertel became a social problem, the poorhouse of Berlin. In other parts of the Spandau suburb, a bourgeois, predominantly Jewish milieu had developed. The center of the Berlin Jewish community was the New Synagogue on Oranienburger Strasse, which was inaugurated in 1866.
The economic development of the Spandau suburb was influenced by the clothing industry. Textile manufacturers had already settled here in the 18th century. In the late 19th century, ready-made clothing and accessories were manufactured on numerous floors of factories or by home workers. In 1906, when the Hackesche Höfe came into existence, Berlin was a ready-made metropolis.

The Hackesche Höfe are Germany's largest commercial complex. As soon as you step through the main gate, the noise of the big city suddenly disappears. The architecture of the courtyards is impressive and the courtyards have a checkered history behind them. There are 8 courtyards and each looks slightly different. There are numerous shops and a few cafes and restaurants. A visit is definitely worth it! In 1747, the city commander, Hans Christoph Friedrich von Hacke, had the marshy area around Hackescher Markt drained. The farms are named after him. Source: hackesche-hoefe.de/de/history
