About Walfisch
Walfisch is a storied name in Berlin’s techno history. Originally operating in the upper-level rooms of the Heinrich-Heine-Straße U-Bahn station in Berlin-Mitte from 1991 to 1993, it helped seed the city’s post-reunification techno scene. Although the original Walfisch venue closed in 1993, the space lived on as Sage Club and later KitKatClub at Köpenicker Straße 76, contributing to Berlin’s enduring nightlife narrative. Since 2012, revival parties branded as Walfisch have appeared at other venues, including Walfisch Exil at Der Weiße Hase. We’ve got you covered with practical details for visiting or planning an event around this iconic name, plus trusted affiliate hotel and dining recommendations to keep your night simple and memorable.
