The Davidswache (David's Watch) is located on Spielbudenplatz, a square which has always been used for great festivals and events and was named in 1798. The building was designed by Fritz Schumacher, who built it with red stone in 1913/14. The narrow gable-fronted side of this house, which faces the Davidstraße is adorned with terracotta elements and a clock. The working police station also provides a ready-made film location for many production companies - as does the whole St Pauli district.
