Overview

Steglitz's Restaurant Tower known as Bierpinsel is strangely reminiscent of the bridge of an aircraft carrier, rising up from the city motorway which connects with Schlossstraße, one of Western Berlin's busiest shopping streets. Built in 1972-76 by the same architects that constructed the futuristic International Conference Centre (ICC), the bright red Restaurant Tower has become one of Steglitz's most recognisable landmarks.
