A historic Kreuzberg courtyard hub for the LGBTQ+ community. Explore queer culture and inclusive events in the heart of Berlin.
Located in the legendary 'Kreuzberg 61' district, Sarotti-Höfe is a historic chocolate factory turned cultural sanctuary that has long been a landmark on the Berlin gay map. Situated at Mehringdamm 55, this stunning industrial courtyard complex serves as a vital meeting point for the LGBTQ+ community, blending architectural heritage with a modern, inclusive spirit. While the venue is home to the sophisticated Schmelzwerk event space, its reputation in the queer community goes beyond aesthetics. For years, these courtyards have hosted diverse initiatives and provided a welcoming backdrop for gay men, non-binary individuals, and the wider queer community seeking a space that celebrates intersectionality. Its location is unbeatable—nestled in the heart of one of Berlin’s most queer-friendly neighborhoods, it sits just steps away from iconic activist history and vibrant queer-friendly cafes. Whether you are using your queer travel guide to find a peaceful spot for reflection or a sophisticated venue for community events, Sarotti-Höfe offers an atmosphere of support and belonging. It remains a 'must-see' for any LGBTQ+ traveler looking to experience the authentic, soulful side of Berlin’s local scene. From high-end culinary gatherings to grassroots community vibes, this venue proves that Berlin’s history is best enjoyed when it is open to everyone.
