Askanischer Platz is located on Stresemannstraße in the Berlin locality of Kreuzberg. The area in front of the former terminus station of the Berlin-Anhalt Railway is named as a reminiscence of the Ascanian dynasty of the House of Anhalt. On the southwest side of the square stands the portico fragment of the Anhalter Bahnhof, which was damaged or burned out in the Second World War and blown up in 1959.
