Schöneberg



Berlin
Schöneberg, a scenic 19th-century bourgeois quarter, is a popular place to go for an afternoon coffee, an evening cocktail, or a bit of night-time partying. The cafés and bars around Winterfeldtplatz are always full, particularly after the market on Saturday afternoons. On the other hand, the streets around Nollendorfplatz and Motzstrasse--home to Berlin's gay scene--are at their busiest (and most colorful) in the early-morning hours. The area around Nollendorfplatz was a main centre of gay life in Berlin during the 1920s and 1930s (Weimar Republic). The Eldorado Night Club on Motzstraße was closed down by the Nazis on coming to power in 1933. Christopher Isherwood lived just around the corner on Nollendorfstraße. This apartment was the basis for his book "Goodbye to Berlin" and later the film Cabaret, which is commemorated by a plaque on the building.
