Berlin’s Largest Peace Message

A walk along the House of One construction fence at Petriplatz becomes a little more rewarding every day. What is emerging here is far more than a temporary boundary around a building site: it is growing into an open, vibrant outdoor exhibition – created by Berlin school classes, the BR Volleys and, increasingly, companies that want to make a visible statement for peace.

The idea is as simple as it is powerful: young people develop their vision of peaceful coexistence, artists translate these ideas into colourful motifs, and the construction fence becomes a stage for the diversity of our city. The images are already impossible to miss – right in the heart of Berlin, along one of the capital’s busiest routes.

Why we are doing this

The House of One stands for dialogue, respect and the recognition of our differences as enrichment. Even before the House of Prayer and Learning opens its doors, we want this spirit to be visible to the public. The construction fence, the visitor box and the square in front offer a unique opportunity to do so – a place where interreligious exchange can already be experienced today.

How you can become part of the peace message

More and more organisations, associations and companies are joining the initiative and designing their own section of the construction fence. By doing so, you not only support this special project – you give young voices visibility and send your own message of peace and solidarity.

Depending on the level of your support, you can:

• take on an individually designed section (0.5×0.5 m to 2×2 m) – realised by a school class or by your own team with artistic guidance
• have your organisation’s name displayed on the construction fence
• see your support highlighted on the website, on social media and in the House of One visitor box
• as a Peace Builder, even use the visitor box for your own event

Details on the three sponsorship levels – Peace Ambassador, Peace Supporter and Peace Builder – can be found in our brochure (German).

If your organisation would also like to send a visible message of peace – or if you want to support a school – feel free to contact us. Together, we will shape what may become the city’s most significant call for peace.
