In some stalls there aren’t even toilettes, just benches to sit. Also unlike New York, there’s no limit to how many people can occupy a stall at one time. For it is inside the bathroom stall that you can - in theory - do the deed. Even with more than five bathrooms in the building, lines to secure a stall could run you 30 minutes of waiting time. If someone does seek to take a pill, do a dose or sniff a powder, all their needs can be met in the watering hole of Berghain: the toilettes. The owners made the tough (but great) decision to finally leave the underground behind and give themselves a permanent home in the building now known as Berghain. This would become a blessing in disguise, however, as it only pushed them right into a nearby abandoned 1950s power plant, then owned by power company Vattenfall. In 2003, the construction of a new events arena pushed the owners out of Ostgut with seemingly nowhere to go.
To balance that out they created Lab.oratory, a room dedicated to gay sex parties, where men could fulfill their deepest, no-limits desires with one another. The pair expanded Ostgut by adding Panorama Bar, which attracted a more mainstream crowd and focused on House music. In 1998, Teufele and Thormann were offered a permanent spot at a new club called Ostgut - an immediate success.
During a conservative decade for Berlin, owners Michael Teufele and Norbert Thormann rebelliously produced a traveling underground party called “Snax.” Snax was equal parts Sodom and Gomorrah, highlighting cutting-edge techno music in congruence with the taboo that is gay sexual liberation.

Berghain as it exists today opened in 2004, but its full story dates back to the early '90s.
