A café from 1878
The Café Heider opened in 1878 as a confectioner's beside the Nauen Gate, at the entrance to the Dutch Quarter, and survived the whole twentieth century; in 1995 it was rebuilt in the style of old Berlin. Today it is a café, restaurant and bakery all at once, and Potsdamers call it their living room.
