RAW-Gelände

This guide to RAW-Gelände in Berlin starts with Franz Stenzer, a communist lawmaker executed in a Nazi cell in 1933, whose name East Germany later hung over a railway repair yard on Revaler Strasse he never set foot in. It traces the yard from its 1867 opening through wartime bombing and its rebuilding, into Deutsche Bahn's abandonment after reunification, and the four empty years before a group calling itself RAW-Tempel let themselves in and refused to leave.
