Berlin police have opened an investigation into an allegation of sexual assault at Berghain<\/a>, the city’s world-renowned nightclub, after an attendee reported being raped during a late-night event earlier this month.<\/p>\n

The incident allegedly occurred on Sunday, March 2nd, during one of Berghain\u2019s famed “Klubnacht” parties, according to reporting by Berliner Zeitung<\/a><\/em>. The assault is said to have taken place in the restrooms of Panorama Bar, one of the club’s two main dancefloors.<\/p>\n

The case came to public attention last week after posts surfaced in an online Reddit forum dedicated to Berghain’s tight-knit community of electronic music enthusiasts. In the posts, users circulated details of the alleged incident and reported that police had been contacted.<\/p>\n

Berlin police have since confirmed that the matter is under active investigation.<\/p>\n

“I can confirm that a specialist department for sexual offenses within the State Criminal Police Office is conducting an investigation into a matter that matches your inquiry,” a police spokesperson told Berliner Zeitung<\/em>. Authorities declined to release further details, citing Germany’s strict privacy and data protection laws.<\/p>\n

Berghain, housed in a former power plant in Berlin’s Friedrichshain district, has long been celebrated for its nonconformist ethos and marathon dance parties. The venue is also known for maintaining a notoriously selective door policy and for fostering a culture where personal freedom is fiercely protected.<\/p>\n

In recent years, as Berlin’s storied club scene has confronted an uncertain future<\/a>, the city has faced growing scrutiny over safety in clubs and public spaces. The latest allegation has prompted calls among some nightlife advocates for more robust measures to protect attendees.<\/p>\n

The investigation into the incident at Berghain remains ongoing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
