Office Deutsche Reichsbahn

This building on Vossstrasse 33 housed the office of the German Railways (Deutsche Reichsbahn) in the 1930s. It was taken over by the Reich Ministry of Transportation in 1940. From here, both military transports and Jew transports by train were controlled. It is the only building in the street that survived the war almost unscathed. The walls still have traces of the Battle of Berlin.
