The Theodor-Heuss-Platz (by residents simply called ''Theo'') is a large city square in Berlin. It is located in the locality of Westend in the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district. The following streets lead into Theodor-Heuss-Platz: * Heerstraße, * Reichsstraße, * Kaiserdamm, * Lindenallee, * Ahornallee, * Pommernallee & * Masurenallee Underneath is the U-Bahn station Theodor-Heuss-Platz. == History == The square was constructed between 1904 and 1908 and was named ''Reichskanzlerplatz''. At the beginning the square was still without houses. On 21 April 1933 the square was renamed ''Adolf-Hitler-Platz''. According to plans for the „Welthauptstadt Germania“ by Adolf Hitler and Albert Speer the square was to have an important role at the western end of the east-west axis. It was also planned to rename the square after Benito Mussolini as ''Mussoliniplatz''. On 31 July 1947 the square's name returned to ''Reichskanzlerplatz''. Six days after the death of the first Federal President of Germany, Theodor Heuss on 18 December 1963, the square was given its present name. In 2014, Google apologized after labeling Theodor-Heuss-Platz as Adolf-Hitler-Platz on its Google Maps service. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Theodor-Heuss-Platz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
