Meistersaal

The Meistersaal is a historic concert hall built in 1910 as a chamber music venue, located in Berlin-Mitte near Potsdamer Platz. The listed building houses a main hall of 266 m² with a 7-metre-high coffered wooden ceiling inspired by the old Berlin Philharmonie, a 4x6 m stage and a bar called the Grüner Salon. Between 1976 and 1991 it was Studio 2 of Hansa Tonstudio, where artists including David Bowie (who wrote and recorded 'Heroes' here), U2 (whose album 'Achtung Baby' was the studio's last production there), Iggy Pop, Depeche Mode and Nick Cave, among many others, recorded. Since 1991 it has operated as an events venue and offers guided tours of the Meistersaal and the Hansa studios, letting visitors discover this key chapter of Berlin's musical history.
