Jüdenstraße (Berlin-Mitte)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Jüdenstraße (German: street of the Jews), is a street in central Berlin, the capital of Germany. It is in the borough of Mitte and runs between Rathausstraße and Stralauer Straße, next to the Rotes Rathaus, Berlin's town hall. It is one of the oldest streets in Berlin, dating from the late 13th century. As its name suggests, it once ran through the Jewish district of mediaeval Berlin. The street name was changed by the Nazis in 1930 to "Kinkelstraße," and was only renamed "Judenstraße" again in 2002.[1]
