Multi-Story Automobile Factory – During WWI, AEG commissioned Peter Behrens to build a cutting-edge automobile factory. Its elaborate design was meant to proclaim the unbroken power of German manufacturing. Behrens also wanted to create a symbol for the social integration of all participants in industrial society. Workers and managers met at the center of the multi-story factory in an arcade-lined atrium. Chassis assembly began on the top floor. The various production floors were connected by 18 freight elevators, with finished automobiles rolling out on the ground floor and fueled up from a gas tank in the basement. The factory initially made trucks for the German army, then cars and buses until it was closed in 1934. Telefunken then used the site to develop television technology to broadcast the 1936 Olympics. After WWII it housed the Television Electronics Factory, which produced vacuum tubes for the East German television industry; its history is documented at the Industriesalon Schöneweide. Currently Deutsche Immoblien Entwicklungs AG is redeveloping the building and the entire Behrens wanterfront as a new neighborhood. The building's atrium was used as a shooting location for the television series Babylon Berlin.

Oberspree Cable Works (1897–1912)
Highlight • Historical Site
At former times: Europe's most modern factory facility - today: Berlin University of Applied Sciences (HTW Berlin) (2009). Old Walls, New Spirit – Eureka! Instead of steam engines, electric motors began powering the works in 1897. Equally modern were the convertible workspaces, which could be altered to meet shifts in market demand. The wide range of goods produced here testifies to this flexibility and illustrates a span of German history. Around 1900, cables, cars, and trucks were manufactured. During WWI and WWII, it was technical equipment and munitions. After 1945, wax candles, iron stoves, and household items were produced. Under the East German regime, cable production for the international market resumed on a large scale. Cables are still made in the historic core of this gigantic complex, both classic and fiber optic varieties. But a majority of the space is now home to HTW Berlin (University of Applied Sciences). Thus, the location continues to unite manufacturing, research, and innovation. The Berlin Center for Industrial Heritage (bzi) was founded here as a joint venture with the Deutsches Technikmuseum.

Oberschöneweide Transformer Plant (1898–1996)
Highlight • Monument
Global Market Leader for Large Transformers – Large transformers turn high voltage current from power plants into low voltage for domestic use. Demand for them spiked at the end of the 19th century, and the AEG factory expanded. New buildings mushroomed at the site: production halls, workshops, offices, and a cafeteria. Nationalized after 1945 as the Karl Liebknecht Transformer Works, it became the main supplier for the East German energy sector. AEG resumed production there in 1992 in the wake of German reunification, but stopped when the age-old company was suddenly dissolved in 1996. The Transformer Works facility, including the landmarked Rathenau-Hallen, was bought by BaseCamp in 2019. The current plan is to renovate the buildings, erect new structures, and develop an office park with cultural and recreational offerings.

Frister Lamp Factory | 1897–1916
Highlight • Historical Site
From Lamp Factory to Business Center – Around 1900 this was the largest lamp factory in Europe. It produced novel electric lighting fixtures like chandeliers and table lamps. After WWII, the building was used by the VEB Institut für Nachrichtentechnik, an East German communications R&D center. It was rumored to be a “Stasi” operation, serving the needs of the Ministry for State Security. Telecommunications systems were produced for the entire Eastern Bloc. After German reunification the building became a home to artists, was sold several times, and then turned into a business center.
