[citation needed] The Lawless Society of Berlin, created by the editor and philologist Philip Karl Buttmann (1764–1829), also held meetings here.
[citation needed] Some notable Berliners included the actor and artistic director August Wilhelm Iffland, whose house was built in the middle of the forest in 1800.
[citation needed] The fountain which is now located at the corner of Urbanstraße and Grimmstraße in the Berlin district of Kreuzberg had to be relocated to make way for the Rolandbrunnen in 1902.
With its new monumental fountain installation, the Kemperplatz of Wilhelmine Berlin formed the end of the southern part of the Siegesalle in the Großer Tiergarten.
[citation needed] The building of the Philharmonic began in the 1960s with the development of the Kulturband Idea which planned for a loose grouping of cultural installations on the spot of the Kemperplatz.
