The '''Strausberger Platz''' is a large urban square in the Berlin district of Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg and marks the border to the district of Mitte. It is connected via Karl-Marx-Allee with Alexanderplatz and via ''Lichtenberger Straße'' with the ''Platz der Vereinten Nationen''. These two streets intersect in an oval roundabout at Strausberger Platz.
==History== The square was the starting point for the East German uprising of 1953, when DDR wanted to increase the 'working norm' making workers work longer for the same pay.
