This 1896 version offers a detailed vision of imperial Berlin, a city in full industrial and cultural expansion.

The map created by Julius Straube in 1896 represents a landmark in the history of Berlin’s urban cartography. Designed with military and civil criteria in mind, the plan combines aesthetics and technical precision, providing not only a geographical tool but also a cultural snapshot of the German capital on the eve of the 20th century.
Straube, drawing on his experience as an officer and cartographer, managed to translate the complexity of a rapidly transforming city onto paper: from the ancient central districts to the new industrial and residential areas, each element is described with scientific method and aesthetic care.
Building the Berlin puzzle means reconstructing the historical memory of one of Europe’s most iconic and evolving cities, in a format that combines passion, play, and culture.
