Pedestrians cross Potsdamer Platz, then one of the busiest squares in Europe; women in fashionable dresses and men in caps shape the street scene. In the background stands Haus Vaterland, an entertainment palace opened in 1928 by the Kempinski group with several themed restaurants, a cinema and ballrooms, ranking among the largest leisure venues in Europe. The square bordered the Tiergarten district and symbolized the pulsating city life of the late Weimar Republic. The footage comes from unedited newsreel material.
