26. Hahn-Meitner Building
Nuclear fission was discovered in December 1938 by chemists Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann and physicists Lise Meitner and Otto Robert Frisch. Fission is a nuclear reaction or radioactive decay process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two or more smaller, lighter nuclei and often other particles. The fission process often produces gamma rays and releases a very large amount of energy, even by the energetic standards of radioactive decay. Scientists already knew about alpha decay and beta decay, but fission assumed great importance because the discovery that a nuclear chain reaction was possible led to the development of nuclear power and nuclear weapons. Hahn was awarded the 1944 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the discovery of nuclear fission.

Already in the 1980s, the East Berlin magistrate placed it under monument protection. Since 1998, the building has been owned by the Coptic Church, which is gradually renovating, converting the church into a Coptic bishop's seat and transforming it into an ecumenical centre. The church was renamed St. Anthony and St. Shenouda Church.
