Overview

• Berlin formally dedicated the Harald-Juhnke-Platz on Monday with a public ceremony at the Kurfürstendamm, Grolmanstraße and Uhlandstraße intersection.
• Mayor Kai Wegner delivered the keynote and jointly unveiled the street sign with Susanne Juhnke after tributes to the late performer.
• Prominent guests from culture and politics attended, with actors Ben Becker and Karsten Speck performing songs associated with Juhnke.
• The name has been legally in effect since September 1 following the district’s administrative process, which did not change any resident addresses.
• The festakt was organized by Juhnke’s longtime manager Peter Wolf together with the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district office after a cross-party council vote in March to honor his life’s work.
