The Wassertorplatz in the Berlin district of Kreuzberg is named after the historic Wassertor and is located about 200 meters west of the Kottbusser Tor. The place is currently divided by the heavily frequented Skalitzer Straße and the subway line U1, which runs over the middle strip of Skalitzer Straße as a raised railway.
