Maaßenstraße connects Nollendorfplatz with Winterfeldplatz. It is a bit like Schöneberg's queer Ku'damm, because there is a lot of retail and gastronomy in the area. A few years ago, the street was rebuilt and now offers many places to sit and relax. At the starting, I was sceptical about the conversion. Now however, I think the idea and execution have indeed been successful. In my opinion, the street has gained a lot from it. When I move for a walk with my husband, we often end up in Maaßenstraße with a bottle of wine, sitting there and people-watching. I love that. Café Berio Berlin is also on Maaßenstraße. I'm not much of a coffee and cake person myself, but Berio’s is an iconic place. They always have fresh, handcrafted cakes and tarts. Berio's is also a excellent place to soak up all the excitement. Spot and be seen!

When the city was divided into East and West Berlin, the Schöneberg district slowly began to progress a vibrant gay and lesbian community. As the wall came down in , Schöneberg’s queer people continued to grow. Today it is known for being Berlin’s most gay-friendly district and is considered the traditional center for gay culture in Berlin. Along Fuggerstrasse, there are dozens of clubs, pubs, restaurants and all conduct of other businesses catering to the queer society. A hot spot for gay culture is also Schöneberg’s Motzstraße. For a more extensive list on queer pubs and clubs in Schöneberg see a map here.

Schöneberg’s queer arrange up also makes it a very fitting location for Berlin’s Schwules Museum* (Gay Museum), whi
