The capital has become the latest area in Germany to introduce a restriction on movement if the seven day incidence (the number of Covid-19 infections per 100,000 residents in seven days) climbs above 200.
The state government decided on Tuesday that from a seven-day incidence of 200, a radius of 15 km will be drawn around the city limits.
The new regulation will come into force on Saturday.
