Café Josty - Berlin

Café Josty was a Berlin café located on Potsdamer Platz. At the beginning of 2001, a new Café Josty was opened at the Sony Center not far from its original location. The Josty brothers immigrated from Sils in Switzerland to Berlin and founded the pastry bakery Zuckerbäckerei Johann Josty & Co. in 1796. From this company emerged the Café Josty at least from 1812, first located "An der Stechbahn", then on the Schlossfreiheit (now the Schlossplatz square), and finally after 1880 on the Potsdamer Platz.
