The Terra Studios or Marienfelde Studios were film studios located in the Berlin suburb of Marienfelde. The studios were originally a glasshouse constructed in 1913 by the early company Eiko Film, controlled by the producer Franz Vogel who had previously been using the Sellerstrasse Studios of Rex Film. In the early 1920s Terra Film was founded and took over the studios from the defunct Eiko. It was known as the Terra-Glashaus during these years. Jung & Schatzberg p.220 In 1930 the studio underwent major rebuilding following the acquisition of Terra by Eugen Scotoni, and was fitted for sound production using the Tobis-Klangfilm system.
