The Berlin Commercial District is a historic district in Berlin, Worcester County, Maryland. It consists of a collection of approximately 47 late-19th-century commercial buildings. They are small-scaled, one-to-three-story buildings that occupy both sides of the main thoroughfare and its secondary arterials. The buildings form a visually cohesive and pleasing streetscape, the majority of which are constructed in the row fashion with party or common walls.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
