Berlin is an unincorporated community in Cullman County, Alabama, United States. It is located roughly five miles east of the city of Cullman. The center of Berlin is considered to be at the intersection of U.S. Route 278 and Cullman County Road 747 at Walker's Corner. The Berlin Community Center is located on U.S. Route 278, just west of the crossroads.HistoryThe community was originally known as Hobart, possibly named after Garret Hobart, a New Jersey legislator who would eventually become vice-president under William McKinley. A post office was established in 1895, but was closed in 1903. The name was changed circa 1914 to honor the capital of Germany, the former homeland of many of the town's residents. The new name was selected by John (Kritner) Kreitner.The historic Lidy Walker Covered Bridge was located just north of Berlin at the farm of Winford I. "Lidy" Walker on Lidy's Lake from 1958 until its collapse in 2001. Originally called the Big Branch Covered Bridge, it was built near Blountsville in Blount County in 1926 and moved to Berlin 32 years later.
