The Venue
BCB 2009 at the Postbahnhof, Berlin
The venue hosting the Bar Convent Berlin 2009, Berlin's 'Postbahnhof', was built in 1907. It is located right next to Ostbahnhof station (East Station), which is one of the largest public transport hubs in Berlin. Just down the road there is an original stretch of the Berlin Wall, known as the Mauergalerie (East Side Gallery) featuring legendary graffiti.
The monumental Postbahnhof building which covers 3000 m², is an architectural masterpiece of clear lines featuring a simple, red-brick façade in the Brick Gothic style. The building's 1800 m² first floor area, the so-called Gleishalle "Track Hall", is illuminated by overheard lights and large windows. This gently-curved room will accommodate the Bar Convent's exhibitor area, the Taste Forum and the new Distillers' Area.
