Virtus Data Centres: Virtus Berlin 6

Virtus Berlin 6 is a forthcoming hyperscale-ready data centre planned as part of Virtus Data Centres’ continued expansion in Germany under the ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (STT GDC) group. Building on the success of the Marienpark Campus (Berlin 1–4) and the subsequent Berlin 5 development, Berlin 6 represents the next phase in Virtus’s strategy to establish a multi-campus presence across the German capital.

The facility is designed to deliver large-scale, sustainable digital infrastructure for hyperscalers, AI, cloud, and enterprise workloads. Located within the greater Berlin metropolitan area—close to high-capacity fibre routes, power availability, and emerging technology clusters—Virtus Berlin 6 will serve as a key node in Virtus’s pan-European data centre network, connecting seamlessly to its existing German and UK sites.
