Westhafen
The Westhafen (German for West Harbor) is Berlin's largest inland port, located in the district of Moabit.
The Westhafen has an area of 430,000 square meters and it is divided into two parallel harbor basins.
The Westhafen was founded in 1923, when the BEHALA (Berliner Hafen- und Lagerhaus AG) was also founded as its operating company. On September 3 of the same year, a first section of the harbor was inaugurated.[3] Some of the BEHALA buildings originating from 1920s were later added to the list of Berlin monuments.[4]
