Das Schloss

Das Schloss opened in the Steglitz district of Berlin at Schloßstraße 14, integrated into Berlin’s most commercially productive suburban retail street, with approximately 37,000 sqm of gross leasable area as a multi-level enclosed retail centre complementing the broader Schloßstraße commercial ecosystem. The centre is owned by Union Investment Real Estate.

Schloßstraße is Berlin’s most commercially intensive suburban retail corridor, a street-level retail axis complemented by multiple enclosed malls — Das Schloss, Forum Steglitz, and Boulevard Berlin — that together create one of Germany’s highest concentrations of suburban retail floor space on a single street. Das Schloss provides H&M and mainstream fashion and service retail to southwestern Berlin’s affluent residential catchment from Steglitz-Zehlendorf, the borough with the highest proportion of owner-occupied housing and above-average household incomes in Berlin. The U9 U-Bahn at Schloßstraße station connects the retail corridor to central Berlin in approximately 20 minutes, and the tram network serves the local residential community. The centre’s name reflects the Schloß (castle/palace) heritage of the surrounding area.

Steglitz-Zehlendorf borough’s population of approximately 310,000 provides the primary catchment, characterised by higher household incomes and more owner-occupied housing than central Berlin districts. The U9 provides direct transit access from the city centre. Potsdam is accessible via the S1 S-Bahn, extending the southwestern Berlin catchment into Brandenburg.

Union Investment manages Das Schloss as one component of the Schloßstraße retail ecosystem whose aggregate commercial productivity makes it the most valuable suburban retail location in Berlin, a commercial environment shaped by southwest Berlin’s consistently above-average income profile and the U9 transit corridor that channels city-centre spending toward the suburban commercial spine.
