Best Rossmann in Berlin?

The one at Hermannplatz is hard to beat. It's huge, two floors, and they stock a lot of the specialty stuff that smaller locations skip, like the full Dr. Hauschka line and the fancy French pharmacy brands. Plus you can grab a döner from the stand outside after you've spent your certificate.

honestly the one at Gesundbrunnen station is my go to. it's in the shopping center right by the S-Bahn so super convenient if you're transiting through, and they actually have a decent selection of the ISANA and Rival de Loop stuff that's usually picked clean elsewhere. plus the staff there are less grumpy than the average Berlin Rossmann employee, which is a win

Worth noting that Berlin street names have official umlaut and ß rules that trip people up, so a sign showing "Strasse" versus "Straße" is not actually a spelling error, just an older transcription. Same with "ue" versus "ü" (e.g. "Kantstrasse" vs "Kantstraße"), both are considered valid renderings and you'll see the ß version on the blue Schilder and the ss version on older plaques or in databases that predate Unicode. If the difference you're seeing is between those two forms, there's nothing to fix and both are technically correct.

if the signs u mean are the old enamel ones on the house facades those are often protected as Baudenkmal so nobody's allowed to correct them even if the spelling is outdated. the binding version is whatever is in the Berliner Strassenverzeichnis plus the entry in the Liegenschaftskataster, so if u tell me the street i can point u to the right Bezirksamt Mitte or Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf page. tbh the merged district thing is real but the facade signs are a separate story, theyre basically museum pieces at this point

honestly thats super common in Charlottenburg, the district offices were merged from older Bezirke and nobody ever fixed all the Schilder. if its a real street you can check the official strassenverzeichnis on berlin.de, that list is what the Burgeramt actually goes by. which street is it? some of the Kaiserdamm / Kantstrasse signs are notorious for this.
