Bedürfnisanstalt

Since the 1980s there have been hundreds of public toilets closed or disaffected in Hamburg, a sad loss of urbanity. This one in Hamburg-Bahrenfeld, Behringstraße on the corner of Hohenzollernring has been turned into a small art gallery named 'Bedürfnisanstalt'. That's the official German designation for public toilets. The translation is 'institution of need'.
