Berlin Approves 'Harald-Juhnke-Platz' to Honor Legendary Entertainer

The Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district parliament has unanimously approved the naming of a public space after Harald Juhnke, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of his death.

The intersection of Kurfürstendamm, Uhlandstraße, and Grolmanstraße in Berlin will be named 'Harald-Juhnke-Platz' to honor the late actor and entertainer.
The initiative received overwhelming support from CDU, Greens, SPD, and FDP in the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district parliament.
Harald Juhnke, a Berlin-born entertainer with a five-decade career in theater and television, is celebrated as one of Germany's greatest performers.
Berlin's Mayor Kai Wegner praised the project, emphasizing Juhnke's cultural impact and the city's commitment to preserving his legacy.
Preparations for the unveiling, including the creation of a street sign, are underway, though the exact date has not yet been set.
