Old bakery ( 1875-1964). The courtyard where the old Hartmann bakery is located recalls Pankow’s rural origins.
The representative building was erected in a neo-baroque style in 1912 by master builder of Berlin’s Jewish Community, Alexander Beer (1873-1944 Theresienstadt), and dedicated in 1913. This generously decorated orphanage owned a school and a synagogue room with a lavishly decorated, and today restored, coffered ceiling, donated by cigarette manufacturer Josef Garbáty-Rosenthal (1851-1939). In 1906 the businessman had moved his factory from Schönhauser Allee to a property adjacent to the Jewish orphanage. In 1938 the Nazis forced the Garbáty Family to sell all their property. The family emigrated in 1939 to the United States. Josef Garbáty-Rosenthal died that same year in Berlin. The Villa in Berliner Strasse 126/127, in which the Garbáty Family had lived up to 1901, was also “Aryanized”. Bulgaria used the villa an embassy building from 1945 to 1989. In honor of the socially-conscious company founder, in the year 2000 the plaza in front of S-Bahn and U-Bahn stations (opened in 1914 and 2000) were named after Garbáty, in 2002 the monument was dedicated on Garbátyplatz and in 2003 a memorial plaque was inserted in the ground. The orphanage, in which up to 100 children had found a home, was forced to shut down in 1940, seized in 1942 by the SS and in 1943 used as the headquarters for the SS Reich Security Office as a central records facility. Nearly half of all children, teachers and employees who lived and worked in the orphanage at that time were murdered in the death camps in 1942/43. A few of the orphans were able to escape with the help of their teachers. A memorial wall in the library of the former orphanage is a memorial today of the some 600 Jewish citizens of Pankow who were deported and murdered during the Nazi dictatorship. After World War II in 1945, the district administration of Pankow was located in the building, from 1950 the German Sports Federation, from 1952 the Polish and from 1971 to 1991 the Cuban Embassy. The charitable „Dr. Walter and Margarete Cajewitz Foundation“ acquired the empty building in 1999 and had it restored according to historical records. In 2001 the building was re-opened as a meeting place and modern cultural center, with an event room (the former synagogue) and the Janusz Korczak Library (featuring 90,000 media units) open to the public, as well as headquarters for social charities. A charity association entitled “Jewish Orphanage” looks after Jewish cultural sites, researches Jewish life in Pankow and has a memorial in the building. In 2002, Thomas Garbáty, Enkel Josef Garbátys, Maler Alexander Polzin in Israel donated the reconstruction of the wording on the side of the house. The granite sculpture, dubbed the „Stone Dealer“ by writer Thomas Brasch (1945-2001) as a play on words involving „stone“ and „hands“, was created in Israel by painter Alexander Polzin (bronze plaque next to the fence).

Karl Friedrich Schinkel’s Altes Museum, completed in 1830, is one of the most important buildings of the Neoclassical era. The monumental arrangement of eighteen Ionic fluted columns, the expansive atrium and sweeping staircase that invites visitors to ascend to the top, the rotunda adorned with Antique sculptures on all sides as a place to collect one’s thoughts and an explicit reference to Rome’s Pantheon: such signs of architectural refinement had previously only ever been seen in buildings designed for royalty and the nobility. The inscription on the portico reads: ‘Friedrich Wilhelm III has dedicated this museum to the study of all antiquities and the free arts, 1828’. Today the museum houses the Collection of Classical Antiquities, showcasing its permanent exhibition on the art and culture of the Greeks, Etruscans, and Romans. The Münzkabinett complements this sweeping overview of classical antiquity with its display of ancient coins.

Collections of the Winckelmann Institute Lehrsammlung Klassische Archäologie The Collections of the Winckelmann Institute (Sammlungen des Winckelmann-Instituts) were created in 1851 by Eduard Gerhard and the foundation of the "Archäologischen Lehrapparats" ("Archeological Teaching Body"). In 1912, when Georg Loeschcke became head, the collections were expanded to include a comprehensive art collection and the Berlin Abguss-Sammlung (Cast Collection). Starting in 1921, the collections were on display in the then largest archaeological university museum of Germany, which had been created by the expansion of the old main building on Unter den Linden. Rebuilt in 1950 and used by third parties until 1998, the collection rooms on the second floor of the west wing have undergone a systematic reconstruction since 2000. Among the items once again on display here are the Minoan-Mycenaean Room featuring originals and copies of the most important art work of the Aegean Bronze Age. There is a room with casts from the Temple of Zeus in Olympia and the Apollo temple in Bassae. There is also a collection of antique originals, in particular pottery from across the Mediterranean starting from the early Stone Age all the way up to the Roman era. Antique glass, lamps and terracotta pots complete this typically German university collection.

The impressive collection of the Egyptian Museum and Papyrus Collection (Ägyptisches Museum und Papyrussammlung) is on display at the Neues Museum. It encompasses masterpieces from different eras of ancient Egypt: from ornate statues, colourful reliefs, exquisite craftwork and delicate papyri to stone sarcophagi weighing several tonnes and examples of monumental Egyptian architecture. The collection is a testament to the accomplishments of the period between 3000 BCE and the beginnings of the Roman Empire. Perhaps best known for the world-renowned bust of Queen Nefertiti, whose paint work has survived without restoration since the Amarna period, other highlights of the exhibition include a series of exceptional portrait busts of the royal family and members of the court. One of the most important works from the late Egyptian period is the expressive 'Berlin Green Head' named after the colour of its stone.

today's Pankow district of Buch was first mentioned in the mid-13th century and in official records in 1375 as "Wendisch-Buch" or „Buch slavica“. Archeological sites confirm the settlement of the "Buch Feldmark" dating back to the Bronze Age.

On this site as early as 1230, Cistercian monks erected a small village chapel made of granite stone. A church bell is first mentioned in 1475. In 1539 Pankow and its place of worship became Protestant. In 1832 Karl Wilhelm Redtel redesigned the church, in collaboration with Karl Friedrich Schinkel (1781-1841). Between 1857 and 1859 Schinkel's student, Friedrich August Stüler (1800-1865), expanded the church on the west side with a nave, aisle and transept in a neo-gothic style and octagonal towers. Stüler’s west facade is no longer visible today. In 1908 the vestibule with the portal was put in front of it. The towers, badly damaged in the battle of Berlin in April 1945, were no longer restored in their original height in 1956. The four stained-glass windows depicting the evangelists were created in 1959 by artist Inge Pape. The pulpit depicts likenesses of reformers Philipp Melanchthon, Martin Luther, Nikolaus Count of Zinzendorf and John Calvin. It is a replica of the pulpit in Berlin’s St. Bartholomew Church. The interior of the church was renovated several times. The church organ today, the fourth since 1859, was dedicated in 1972. The altar table was created by Wolfgang Heger in 1971. The altar crucifix made of copper and enamel, with a body of bronze, which at the same time depicts the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ, was designed in 1972 by Herbert Reinhold, who also made the candelabras and the bible lectern. The Coventry Cross of Nails is a sign of death and forgiveness. It commemorates the destruction of the English city of Coventry by the German Luftwaffe on 14 November 1940. The Cross of Nails is a replica of the much smaller and silver original, which the provost had loaned the community of Pankow in 1962 but had been stolen in the 1960s. The parish priest community of Old Pankow is a member of the association of German Cross of Nails communities, which maintains contacts of reconciliation in other countries. Following the establishment of the Nazi dictatorship in 1933, the Pankow Evangelical Church community was from 1935 to 1945 a bastion of the Confessing Church, which the National Socialist church policies rejected. On the first Friday of each month there is an active peace group. The peace work began in 1981 during a time when there was nuclear arms build-up in NATO and the Warsaw Pact. The peace group’s motto was „Peace, Justice and Preservation of the Creation“, and the peace group was open for Christians and atheists to participate. As a center of opposition in the GDR, it was subjected to extreme scrutiny by state authorities. Following the changes in the GDR in 1989/90, numerous members assumed political functions in newly founded parties and grass-roots political movements.

The ring formed in Niederschönhausen by the old Viktoriastraße and Kronprinzstraße streets was so named after the Russian poet Majakowski (1893-1930). As it was not allowed to access the prohibited area without a special authorization, it received the name “Städtchen” (little town), according to the Russian translation. In 1945 the bourgeois villas on the Viktoriastraße and Kronprinzenstraße were seized and evacuated by the Soviet occupying forces for officials and personalities that emigrated. After the founding of the GDR in 1949, high-level officials of the SED and the GRD government resided in this fenced-in, and later walled-in, residential neighbourhood. In the villa no. 28 (demolished in 1975) lived the SED Secretary-General Walter Ulbricht (1893-1973). His wife, Lotte Ulbricht (1903-2002), moved into house no. 12 after the death of his husband in 1973. In house no. 29 lived GDR President Wilhelm Pieck, in no. 34 the poet and culture minister Johannes R. Becher (1891-1964) and in no. 58 lived temporally Erich Honecker (1912-1994), member of the SED Politburo. In the Homeyerstraße street 13 lived Arnold Zweig (1887-1968), writer and president of the GDR Art Academy. Novelist Hans Fallada (1893-1947) lived in a street that would later be named after him in 1994, Rudolf-Dietzen-Weg 19, formerly Majakovskiweg, Eisenmengerweg and Prinz-Heinrich-Straße. In 1960 the SED leadership moved its headquarters to the Waldsiedlung complex, in Wandlitz, to the north of Berlin.

[Schönhausen Palace] Schönhausen Palace, with its Palace Park, is the most significant array of monuments to be found in Berlin's Pankow District. Founded in 1220, "Nydderen Schonhusen" was first mentioned in public records in 1375. After changing feudal ownership several times, the estate and village of Buch was in the hands of the Grumbkow Family from 1684 on. They sold the Niederschönhausen estate in 1691 Frederick III, Elector of Brandenburg. (1657-1713, and from 1701 Frederick I King of Prussia.). A "small palace" that had already existed since 1664 was converted into a representative summer residence in 1691 by Chief Building Director Johann Arnold Nering (1659-1695) and in 1704 by Court Architect Eosander von Göthe (1669-1728). The palace, consisting of three wings, with its extended gardens, was a center of court life to Frederick I for as long as he lived. From 1713 on, during the reign of the "Soldier King" Frederick William I (1688-1740), Schönhausen Palace remained unused and became dilapidated. In 1740, King Frederick II (1712-1786) gave the palace and the gardens to his spouse, Elisabeth Christine (1715-1797). Living separate lives according to the king's wishes, the queen resided here in the summer months up to her death. After the devastation caused by the Seven Years War (1756 to 1763), Elisabeth Christine made more expansions to the palace. In 1763/64 master builder Johann Boumann the Elder (1706-1776) of Amsterdam gave the palace its current appearance. To the west of the palace grounds, in around 1750, Elisabeth Christine planted the "Queen's Plantation", an assorted orchard of mulberry and fruit trees. In 1763 the queen located twelve colonist families, mainly from Bohemia, to care for the Queen's gardens. In 1791 the colony was given the name "Schönholz". In 1920 the public park, "Schönholzer Heide" was created. This is the site of a Soviet monument to honor the 13,200 soldiers and officers who died during the March/April 1945 liberation of Berlin from the Nazi regime. From 1828 to 1831 garden architect Peter Joseph Lenné (1789-1866) designed the queen's rococo garden into an expansive, English-styled, landscape park. From 1840, the palace and park were the widow's residence of the Duchess of Liegnitz, nee Auguste Countess von Harrach (1800-1873). Since 1824, she had led a morganatic marriage to "the left hand" the wife of King Frederick Wilhem III (1770-1840). On the north side the Court Gardener's House was built in around 1855 in an Italian country home style. In 1920 ownership of the palace was transferred to the State of Prussia. It was used temporarily as an exhibition building for the "Northern Artist Federation" and in 1935/36 under the direction of Head Building Councillor Erich Schonert, it underwent substantial remodeling as it was used as the venue for exhibitions of the National Socialist "Reich's Collection of Fine Arts". In 1938, it was used as a depot for the majority of works from the Nazi propaganda exhibition, "Degenerate Art", which were to be sold on the world market. Schönhausen Palace withstood all of World War II practically unscathed. In 1946 it served as interim quarters for the Soviet Military Administration (SMAD). From 1949 it was converted into the official seat of the first President of the GDR, Wilhelm Pieck (1876-1960), who resided here from 1949 on. There were soon perimeter walls, sentry stations on the streets leading to the property, the Presidential Chancellery and garages. In 1960 the palace became the seat of the GDR State Council, a type of collective Head of State, and after substantial renovations in 1965, it became the GDR government's first official guest house. From December 1989 to March 1990 the GDR's "Central Round Table" held meetings in the conference building ("Berlin House", commemorative plaque). In June of 1990 it was the venue for the second round of the "Two plus Four Negotiations" by foreign ministers to set the stage for German Reunification. The palace park was reopened to the public in 1991. Schönhausen Palace and Garden have been owned by the "Stiftung Preussische Schlösser und Gärten Berlin-Brandenburg" foundation since August 1st in 2005. Due to extensive restauration the palace will be closed until 2009.

In 1920 the public park, "Schönholzer Heide" was created. This is the site of a Soviet monument to honor the 13,200 soldiers and officers who died during the March/April 1945 liberation of Berlin from the Nazi regime. From 1828 to 1831 garden architect Peter Joseph Lenné (1789-1866) designed the queen's rococo garden into an expansive, English-styled, landscape park. From 1840, the palace and park were the widow's residence of the Duchess of Liegnitz, nee Auguste Countess von Harrach (1800-1873). Since 1824, she had led a morganatic marriage to "the left hand" the wife of King Frederick Wilhem III (1770-1840). On the north side the Court Gardener's House was built in around 1855 in an Italian country home style. In 1920 ownership of the palace was transferred to the State of Prussia. It was used temporarily as an exhibition building for the "Northern Artist Federation" and in 1935/36 under the direction of Head Building Councillor Erich Schonert, it underwent substantial remodeling as it was used as the venue for exhibitions of the National Socialist "Reich's Collection of Fine Arts". In 1938, it was used as a depot for the majority of works from the Nazi propaganda exhibition, "Degenerate Art", which were to be sold on the world market. Schönhausen Palace withstood all of World War II practically unscathed. In 1946 it served as interim quarters for the Soviet Military Administration (SMAD). From 1949 it was converted into the official seat of the first President of the GDR, Wilhelm Pieck (1876-1960), who resided here from 1949 on. There were soon perimeter walls, sentry stations on the streets leading to the property, the Presidential Chancellery and garages. In 1960 the palace became the seat of the GDR State Council, a type of collective Head of State, and after substantial renovations in 1965, it became the GDR government's first official guest house. From December 1989 to March 1990 the GDR's "Central Round Table" held meetings in the conference building ("Berlin House", commemorative plaque). In June of 1990 it was the venue for the second round of the "Two plus Four Negotiations" by foreign ministers to set the stage for German Reunification. The palace park was reopened to the public in 1991. Schönhausen Palace and Garden have been owned by the "Stiftung Preussische Schlösser und Gärten Berlin-Brandenburg" foundation since August 1st in 2005. Due to extensive restauration the palace will be closed until 2009.
"Alex" to Berliners, a cattle market in the Middle Ages, a military parade square and an exercise ground for nearby barracks until the mid 19th century - Alexanderplatz is the square named to honour Alexander I, Tsar of Russia, on his visit to Berlin in 1805. It was here that Alfred Döblin took the pulse of the cosmopolitan metropolis portrayed in his 1929 novel "Berlin Alexanderplatz" filmed by Fassbinder for a TV series as a portrait of the bustling city in the 1920s before the imminent Nazi takeover. Fast forward to more recent times, one million people congregated here, on 4 November 1989 to demonstrate against the GDR regime shortly before the fall of the Berlin Wall. This was the largest anti-government demonstration in its history. Alexanderplatz Alexanderplatz 1977 © Landesarchiv Berlin Fotograf: Gerhard Hoffmann Alexanderplatz epitomizes Berlin's urban history Layer upon layer of Berlin's urban history is located in Alexanderplatz, interweaving centuries of social, political, and architectural history and repeatedly the subject of public debate and urban design competitions. The transformation of Alexanderplatz into a modern transit junction and shopping area came about during the second half of the 19th century with developments such as the construction of the S-Bahn, Berlin's surface rail network in 1882 and the underground railway from 1913. Devasted during the war the square gradually developed into the pedestrian zone during the 1960s becoming a popular if rather amorphous urban area. Alexanderplatz: Centre of East Berlin Many of the well known buildings, examples of East Berlin's attempt to compete with the Western side's own in-your-face high-rises were erected during this time: The "Hotel Stadt Berlin" – a 123 meters high hotel, the "Haus des Lehrers" (Teachers' House), a venue for pedagogues which remained more of a representative façade than a real educational forum, the "Haus des Reisens" (House of Travel) with a slightly amusing ring to it given the notorious travel restrictions during the GDR, and the publishing house building - today's Berliner Verlag – with offices of the Berlin daily, Berliner Zeitung. Socialist urban aesthetics at Alexanderplatz In the 1970s under Erich Honecker Alexanderplatz became an experiment in socialist urban aesthetics. The honeycomb aluminium façade of the former "Centrum Warenhaus", (Kaufhof Group today) was the largest department store in the GDR and is today a transformed department store designed by Josef Paul Kleihues. Alexanderplatz © dpa Major sights at Alexanderplatz Amongst the sights to look out for here are the 365 metre TV Tower, Berlin's highest construction topped by a globe (turned into a pink football during the 2006 World Cup Event) with a rotating viewing platform. The "Brunnen der Völkerfreundschaft" (Fountain of Friendship amongst Peoples) and the landmark World Time Clock erected in 1969 serve as popular meeting places.

This outstanding high-renaissance baroque monument has linked the Hohenzollerns to German Protestantism for centuries and undergone renewed phases of architectural renovation since the Middle Ages. First built in 1465 as a parish church on the Spree River it was only finally completed in 1905 under the last German Kaiser -Wilhelm II. Damaged during the Second World War it remained closed during the GDR years and reopened after restoration in 1993. The "old" Cathedral at Lustgarten The "old" Cathedral at Lustgarten was initially constructed between 1747 and 1750 under Friedrich the Great (1740-1786) as a baroque church in accordance with Knobelsdorff’s plans by Johann Boumann. From 1817 to 1822 Karl Friedrich Schinkel redesigned it but the Cathedral retained its stylistic similarity to the high-renaissance baroque architecture of St. Peter's Cathedral in Rome. Finally, official plans reconciling the different stages and stylistic developments were presented by Julius Rashdorff in 1885 to King Friedrich Wilhelm IV. When Wilhelm II ascended the throne in 1888 he authorised the demolition of the "old" Cathedral and the construction, began in 1893, of the much larger, imposing present Berliner Dom.

During the many years of division the original parishioners – over 12,000 in the 19th century - were divided into two separate parishes. It was only in 1980 that the parishioners were able to celebrate mass again and that baptism and funerals were carried out. Berlin Cathedral contains the tombs of members of the House of Hohenzollern Known as the Hohenzollern family tomb, over ninety sarcophagi and tombs are on display including those of the Prussian Kings – Friedrich I and Sophie Charlotte, by Andreas Schlüter, impressively cast in gold-plated tin and lead. Other important works of art are the baptismal font by Christian Daniel Rauch and the Petrus mosaic by Guido Reni. The Dome's organ with over 7000 pipes is a masterpiece and one of the largest in Germany. A visit to the Dome requires climbing 270 steps but the viewing gallery is worth it for great views of Mitte.

Berlin TV Tower The TV Tower at Alexanderplatz is Berlin's most prominent landmark and the tallest building in Germany. Its steel sphere contains a visitor platform and a revolving restaurant. tweet share12 +11 Info Berlin TV Tower © dpa Show next of 3 images Everyone is supposed to remember that Berlin's Fernsehturm (TV Tower) is 365m high and the tallest building in Berlin. As urban legend has it, the tower's height was a deliberate decision taken by Walter Ulbricht, Leader of the SED, so that every child would be able to remember it, just like the days of the year. In fact the tower's summit today is 368m. Construction Construction for the GDR transmitter started in the 1950s and the tower erected between 1965-69 was intended as the tallest tower in Europe second only to Moscow's own TV tower. It was built by East German architects Fritz Dieter, Günter Franke and Werner Ahrendt. Berlin TV Tower is the only city TV tower in Europe A separate TV broadcasting system for East Berlin was a necessity during the years of division and the fact that it was built right in the middle of the city was Ulbricht's original vision. It remains the only city TV tower in Europe. An extremely popular sight for tourists and Berliners alike, it currently receives over 1 million visitors a year. The lift reaches an altitude of 200m in 40 seconds; the observation deck is at a height of 203m and the Telecafé at 207m. The Telecafé, designed with an outer ring of revolving tables, serves coffee, snacks and reasonably priced meals while revolving once around its axis every 30 minutes. On a bright day, this is the way to take in Berlin and surrounding Brandenburg from an eagle-eyed view. The tower consists of a 250m concrete shaft with a red and white striped steel mast. A 3m tip was replaced in 1997 and the sphere consists of seven floors on the inside, all of which are open to visitors. The sphere's surface consists of 140 stainless steel segments. Photo Galleries (in German) Fernsehturm Fernsehturm am Alexanderplatz Fernsehturm: Historische Bilder Fernsehturm: Historische Bilder "Pope's Revenge" The tower's second legend is that although it was intended to demonstrate technological advance it was doomed to an ironic fate. To the embarrassment of GDR authorities – the steel sphere below the antenna produced the reflection of a giant cross. Hence the popular joke, not appreciated by the SED government, that this was the Popes's revenge on the secular socialist State for having removed crucifixes from churches. Berlin TV Tower was transformed into a magenta coloured football in 2006 The giant sphere's greatest moment of glory was unquestionably in June 2006. During the World Cup Football Championships it was transformed into a giant silver and magenta coloured football. It became the perfect symbol of the world football event. Berlin TV Tower is part of a building ensemble at Alexanderplatz Around the base of the tower is an exhibition centre and a restaurant building in an ensemble which includes the Neptune fountain, once situated on the palace square.

The sign, which became a symbol of the division of Cold War Berlin and read like a dire warning to those about to venture beyond the Wall – "YOU ARE LEAVING THE AMERICAN SECTOR" – in English, Russian, French and German - stood here.

German Church German Church in Berlin is one of three major buildings at Gendarmenmarkt square in the Mitte district. It holds an exhibition on parliamentary democracy in Germany. Berlin's German Church (Deutscher Dom) – not to be confused with the Berliner Dom which is the largest protestant church in Berlin – is best known as one of the three buildings which make up the spectacular "trinity ensemble" in the Gendarmenmarkt square in Mitte including its twin Französischer Dom (French Cathedral) and the Konzerthaus or Concert Hall. History of German Church The German Church was erected in 1708 under Elector Friedrich III, who had crowned himself King Frederick I in 1701 and was intent, along with his wife Queen Sophie Charlotte, in turning Berlin into a royal residence to rival Versailles. The building is by Martin Grünberg and was given its galleried "dome" (hence the name Dom) originating from the French "dome" or cupola, in 1785 by Carl von Gontard. It was known as the Neue Kirche (New Church) and only later referred to as the German Church. It is considered remarkable because of its five-sided floor plan. Severe damages during WWII In 1780 Friedrich's grandson, Friedrich the Great (1740-1786) commissioned Carl von Gontard to build two non-functional domes for the existing churches to offset the Comedy Theatre next to them. These were inspired by Christopher Wren's and Inigo Jones's domes on St Paul's Cathedral in London. The French dome housed the Huguenot Museum whereas the German dome was the address for the Berlin Historical Association. Another victim of Allied bombings, the building was badly damaged during the war. The church and tower burned down in 1943, and were slowly restored between 1982 and 1996. German Church permanent exhibition Since 1992 a German Parliament exhibition can be seen here entitled "Wege, Irrwege and Umwege" roughly translated as "Paths, Wrong Tracks and Detours" or the development of parliamentary democracy in Germany – ways and roundabouts. No religious services are held here. http://www.berlin.de/en/attractions-and-sights/3561471-3104052-german-church.en.html

Hackesche Höfe A rare example of art nouveau architecture in Berlin, the courtyard complex Hackesche Höfe in the Mitte district is a vibrant urban quarter combing art, work, gastronomy and entertainment. tweet share5 +10 Info Hackesche Höfe © dpa Show next of 2 images Berlin's Hackesche Höfe (Hof means "courtyard") – just off S-Bahn Station Hackescher Markt, is a heritage site consisting of eight communicating, restored rear courtyards accessible through the main arched entrance at Rosenthaler Straße. The area, also known as the Scheunenviertel is one of Berlin's top entertainment hubs, popular with Berliners and visitors alike and a magnet for club-goers since the 1990s. Hackesche Höfe: Symbol of the vibrant New Berlin The restoration of this heritage building completed in 1997, was a central factor in the emergence of one of Berlin's liveliest quarters since reunification. Since the 1990s the area around Hackesche Höfe has been synonymous with the vibrant urban renewal of the New Berlin, combining a mix of business and offices, residential housing, entertainment venues, art galleries, boutiques, bars and restaurants - the unmissable urban mix of the New Berlin which emerged in the 1990s. The energy of post-unification Germany, a quest for renewal and reinvention, found expression in cutting-edge creativity in the arts and fashion and state-of-the-art design. The result is an original, new entrepreneurial spirit characterised by an exuberant convergence of life with lifestyle. The Höfe are an example of how this spirit was realised. History of Hackesche Höfe dates back to the 18th century Historically, development of the Höfe went hand in hand with the growth of Berlin as a thriving urban centre. The expansion started around 1700 from an outer suburb known as Spandauer Vorstadt, located outside the Spandau City gate which already had its own church, the Sophienkirche as early as 1712. Friedrich Wilhelm I built a new city wall here and the former suburb became a new urban district belonging to Berlin. Today's Hackescher Markt takes its name from the market built here by a Spandau city officer, Count von Hacke. Jewish migrants and French Huguenots at Hackescher Markt The influx of Jewish migrants and the exiled French Huguenots gave the district the cosmopolitan diversity which it never lost. The first synagogue was built in this area and the first Jewish cemetery established on the Große Hamburger Straße. Another name for the area, the Scheunenviertel (barn district) is associated today with up and coming art galleries and the more bohemian side of Berlin. The largest synagogue in Germany was built in nearby Oranienburger Straße in 1866. Hackesche Höfe: A unique urban ensemble In 1858 Hans Quiltz, a glass manufacturer acquired a licence for commercial use of the property at Rosenthaler Straße 40 and Sophienstraße 6. By 1905, Berlin was the most densely populated city in Europe with 2 million inhabitants. In 1907 Kurt Berndt and August Endell, a property developer and architect team took over the property. The first courtyard (Hof 1) was magnificently restored in art nouveau style with ceramic tiles designed by August Endell himself. The concept behind the 1990s restoration of the Höfe was in fact a renaissance of the original 20th century use of the site. The urban mix where the main areas of life, private residential space, work, entertainment and gastronomy could develop jointly in one living space has characterised this area for over a century. Amongst the Höfe's residents before the War were an Expressionist poets' association in 1909 (Der Neue Club), a Jewish Girl's Club in 1916, the Imperial Cinema in 1921, a Jewish Student Canteen in 1913, wine merchants and a family department store. Jacob Michael, the Jewish owner of the property before the War, was forced into exile by the Nazis in 1933. Confiscated as a foreign asset it was only finally returned to Jacob's legal heirs in 1993. Restoration in the 1990s The SMAD (Soviet Military Administration) requisitioned the property in 1945. The building became communally resident-owned in 1951 after a tenants' association opposed the destruction of its original Jugendstil façade by Endell. Restoration began in 1995 under a consortium including a residents' association, private investors, local authorities, and was carried out by Berlin architects Weiss and Partner. The façade was fully modernised including the new completely new addition of the Arch at the entrance. Main attractions at Hackescher Markt The main attractions are the Chamäleon Variety Theatre housed in the original wine tavern and an original ceiling from one of the banqueting rooms in the large Hackescher Hof Restaurant immediately to the left of the entrance. A walk around the area must include the Große Hamburger Straße with the Jewish cemetery – Alter Jüdischer Friedhof - destroyed by the Gestapo in 1943.

Jewish Museum The Jewish Museum is one of the most striking examples of contemporay architecture in Berlin. The three buildings, two of which were designed by Libeskind, display two millennia of German-Jewish history. tweet share0 +10 Info Jewish Museum in Berlin © dpa Show next of 2 images A timeless monument to Jewish history and life in Germany, Daniel Libeskind's Berlin Jüdisches Museum is one of the world's undisputed museums and architectural gems. With over four million visitors since its gala opening on September 9, 2001 the museum is a stunning achievement in the architecture of cultural identity, a lasting expression of Jewish presence and dislocation and above all the attempt at integrating, physically and spiritually, the meaning of the Holocaust into the memory and consciousness of the city of Berlin. Jewish Museum was designed by Daniel Libeskind For Libeskind, who was born a few hundred kilometres from Berlin in Lodz/Poland and whose family was decimated during the Holocaust, the project presented to the Berlin Senate in 1988 – one year before the fall of the Berlin Wall – was a mission to acknowledge and incorporate the fractured course of German-Jewish history and the void of Jewish life in Berlin. The museum was meant above all as a new articulation of humanity in the history of Europe and of Berlin, an emblem of hope. In Daniel Libeskind's words, "it thematises and integrates for the first time in post-war Germany the history of the Jews in Germany, the repercussions of the Holocaust and spiritual displacement. It is also just a museum with exhibits on the walls". Jewish Museum displays over 2000 years of Jewish history The permanent exhibition inaugurated in 2001 comprises over 2000 years of Jewish history, from Roman times to the present day, arranged in 14 sections documenting the development of Jewish life in Germany - its artistic, cultural and scientific contribution throughout the centuries. The Museum first opened to the public as an empty building in autumn 2001. Over 350,000 visitors and Berliners came attracted by the building's aesthetic symbolism. The first Jewish Museum in Berlin opened in 1933 The first Jewish Museum opened in Berlin in 1933 on Oranienburger Straße but its collections were confiscated by the Gestapo in 1938. Subsequently, a Jewish department was housed in the 1735 former Baroque courthouse, the Kollegienhaus, by Philipp Gerlach. The cornerstone for the Berlin Museum's extension was laid in 1992 following Libeskind's winning design for the planned Jewish department extension to the Berlin Museum, selected from amongst 165 competition entries in June 1989 after a process lasting over twenty years. Deconstructivist-style building illustrates Jewish history in Germany Libeskind's own name for the Jewish Museum project was 'Between the Lines'. Starting with the vision of two lines, the first straight broken and fragmented, the other tortuous but indefinitely continuous, he gave visual form to the elements of fragmentation coexisting with hope, continuity and connectivity, Jews and Germans, East and West, tradition and present.

Subsequently, a Jewish department was housed in the 1735 former Baroque courthouse, the Kollegienhaus, by Philipp Gerlach. The cornerstone for the Berlin Museum's extension was laid in 1992 following Libeskind's winning design for the planned Jewish department extension to the Berlin Museum, selected from amongst 165 competition entries in June 1989 after a process lasting over twenty years. Deconstructivist-style building illustrates Jewish history in Germany Libeskind's own name for the Jewish Museum project was 'Between the Lines'. Starting with the vision of two lines, the first straight broken and fragmented, the other tortuous but indefinitely continuous, he gave visual form to the elements of fragmentation coexisting with hope, continuity and connectivity, Jews and Germans, East and West, tradition and present.
Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe or Holocaust Memorial near Brandenburg Gate commemorates the up to six million Jewish victims of the Nazi Holocaust. Berlin's Holocaust Memorial, located in Mitte on a stretch of the former "death strip" where the Wall once stood near Brandenburg Gate, is Berlin's stunning monument to the Holocaust, dedicated to the Jewish victims of the Nazi genocide of World War II. Impressive in its awesome grey soberness, rather than sombreness, it includes an underground Ort der Information (Information Centre) located on the south-eastern side of the memorial grounds, accessible via two flights of stairs or a lift. Information Centre at the Memorial The 800 square meters Information Centre complements the abstraction of the memorial with personal documentation about individuals and families. This includes biographical details, recordings and information about memorial sites throughout Germany and Europe. Documenting the universal issue of genocide, the centre represents a central focus on the diverse memorial sites across Germany which stress the living memory aspect of remembrance. In Berlin an example of this is the Stolpersteine (tripping stones) initiative – plaques on street pavements, usually outside the house's main entrance, commemorating deported Jewish residents. Photo Gallery (in German) Mann am Holocaust-Mahnmal Holocaust-Mahnmal Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe consists of 2711 rectangular blocks of concrete It took 17 years for the Memorial to be completed in Berlin. Its foundation stone was a Bundestag resolution passed on June 25, 1999 to erect a Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. This was followed by years of discussion and deliberation, until the Monument was completed on May 8, 2005. US architect Peter Eisenman conceived the winning design consisting of 2711 rectangular blocks of concrete laid out in grid formation, recalling tombstones. The monument is open day and night and it is possible to walk through the concrete slabs at one's own pace. Visitors are not allowed to climb on them though, something which is particularly hard for younger visitors and small children to resist. The effect is that of inner dislocation in a destabilising maze as the ground is uneven and the blocks vary in height and size. An ideal setting for quiet contemplation.

The New Synagogue on Oranienburger Straße was the main synagogue of the Berlin Jewish community. An important architectural monument of late 19th century Berlin, it is now home to the Centrum Judaicum. The New Synagogue (Neue Synagoge), along with the Jewish Museum and the Holocaust memorial is one of Berlin's most significant Jewish landmarks. Built in 1866, to seat 3200 people as the largest Jewish place of worship in Germany, the Neue Synagogue was literally a symbol of the thriving Jewish community. With 160,000 Jewish citizens in 1933, Berlin was the centre of Liberal Judaism. Centrum Judaicum Today the building houses the Centrum Judaicum foundation which opened in 1995, an institution for the preservation of Jewish memory and tradition, a community congregation centre for study and teaching. The museum and information centre houses exhibits including Torahs and scrolls which were excavated as late as 1989 during the restoration phase. Only one prayer room remains in use today, with mixed seating in the reformed Judaism tradition. A guided tour is available here to see the open space which lies behind the restored facade of the building where the former huge, main Synagogue room once was. A glass and steel structure secures the remaining fragments of masonry of the former synagogue. The original ground plan dimensions can be seen by a traced perimeter which give an idea of the size of the destroyed sections. New Synagogue: Planned by Knoblauch, completed by Stüler The Synagogue was the project of Eduard Knoblauch who has gone down in history as the first successful private architect after the Schinkel era which was dominated by the grand projects of state-commissioned buildings. He did not live to see the finished building and the work was completed by August Stüler. It was consecrated in 1866. The magnificent Moorish dome, visible from a long distance, its ornate gold-plated ribbed lattice and the oriental motifs on the façade were inspired by the Alhambra in Granada, Spain.

Potsdamer Platz has been redeveloped as the new centre of Berlin after the fall of the Wall. A bustling traffic intersection in the 1920s, it became desolate after WW II and part of the Berlin's Potsdamer Platz is the most striking example of the urban renewal that turned Berlin into the "New Berlin" in the 1990s although it is not, strictly-speaking, a square. The area today consists of the three developments known as Daimler City (1998), the Sony Centre (2000) and the Beisheim Centre (2004), which literally transformed the dormant wasteland where the Berlin Wall stood between east and west Berlin until 1989. The debate around redeveloping Potsdamer Platz The challenge of rebuilding the heart of post Cold War Berlin was no trifling matter – how to transform a desolate sandy wasteland into the new German capital's city centre. At stake was nothing less than making a statement on the fundamental principles of urban design at the end of the 20th century. Many issues needed to be addressed. How to reconcile public against commercial interests, the integration of two transport systems, road and infrastructural planning affecting the new re-united centre, limiting traffic in the inner city area and incorporating ecological considerations, deciding on the style of architecture - Manhattan high-rise buildings or lower housing, traditional, futuristic or avant-garde? Potsdamer Platz today: A mixture of American and European city design The long debates about the future of Potdamer Platz needed to resolve the issue of bringing authentic metropolitan life into an area which had been dead for years – integrating residential accommodation with shopping, leisure and business needs to ensure that the area live around-the-clock. What can be seen today is believed to have resulted in a successful compromise - a mixture of the American plaza feel at the Sony Centre and a tree-lined European downtown around the Marlene Dietrich Platz producing a lively, buzzing atmosphere.

The Red Town Hall (Rotes Rathaus), located in the Mitte district near Alexanderplatz, is one of Berlin's most famous landmarks. It is seat of the Governing Mayor and the Senate of Berlin. The Red Town Hall derives its name from the façade design which is made up of red bricks. Built between 1861 and 1869 according to plans by Hermann Waesemann, the first sitting of the magistrate in the new town hall was held as early as four years after the foundation stone was laid. The neo-renaissance building was designed as a multi-winged complex in round-arch style featuring three inner courtyards and a 74 meters high tower. Red Town Hall: Seat of the administration of reunified Berlin since 1991 Heavily damaged in World War II, the Red Town Hall was reconstructed in the postwar years. As a result of the division of Berlin the East Berlin magistrate held its sessions in the Red Town Hall and the West Berlin senate in Schöneberg town hall. In 1991 the Red Town Hall became again seat of government of the now reunified Berlin. The Red Town Hall consists of several significant rooms. The armorial hall used to be the meeting place of the city council assembly. The name of the hall derives from the windows which represent all the emblems of Berlin and the emblems of all the districts of the city. Today the armorial hall is used as a reception room for guests of state. Originally built as a room for festivities, the great ceremonial hall served as the assembly hall for the East Berlin city council assembly until 1990. It is the largest room in the town hall and is used today for events such as receptions and ceremonies. The column hall, nine meters high and considered the most beautiful hall of the building, used to accommodate the library. Today the column hall hosts exhibitions and events.

The Reichstag building with the famous glass dome is one of the most frequently visited sights in Berlin. It is seat of the German parliament, the Bundestag. The Reichstag building was completed in 1894 following German national unity and the establishment of the German Reich in 1871. After a complete restoration of Paul Wallot's original building, the Bundestag reconvened here in Sir Norman Foster's spectacularly restored Reichstag building on April 19, 1999. Following German reunification on October 3, 1990 the Bundestag (German Federal Parliament) decided, one year later, to make the Reichstag the seat of Parliament in Berlin, the restored capital of reunited Germany. History of the Reichstag building The Reichstag building was completed in 1894 following German national unity and the establishment of the German Reich in 1871. Under the attentive eye of Kaiser Wilhelm II, Paul Wallot's Reichstag competition winner of 1882 was a synthesis of High Renaissance and classical motifs such as the façade of columned porticos. It already included a modern glass and steel dome. The building's grandeur was accentuated by an imposing projecting columned entrance supporting a triangular gable and a wide flight of steps that must be climbed to reach the main entrance portal. The result was a four-wing structure with two inner courtyards and a central plenary chamber and an emperor's crown at a height of 75m on the lantern. Ironically, the building's site was considered slightly unfortunate at the time because its entrance was facing the wrong side – West - with its back to the imperial Schloss and the 19th century city centre. The famous inscription - "DEM DEUTSCHEN VOLK" - (to the German nation), a 1916 addition by Peter Behrens, still towers above the monumental entrance.

The Victory Column with Victoria, the Goddess of Victory in the centre of the Tiergarten is one of Berlin's most famous landmarks and a popular tourist spot. Berlin's Siegessäule - Victory Column - is another of Berlin's monuments that has reinvented itself through the ages - from symbol of Prussian military victory in the 19th century to a favourite tourist spot today. As US Presidential candidate, Barack Obama chose the Siegessäule as the alternative spot to the Brandenburg Gate for his speech to 200,000 Berliners on July 24, 2008. Relocation of the Victory Column The 67m high symbol of victory originally stood in front of the Reichstag in the former Königsplatz and today's Platz der Republik. It was relocated here, in the Tiergarten's main roundabout by the Nazis in 1938. The Großer Stern roundabout is a central intersection from which five avenues stretch out to different directions around the compass. According to plans by Albert Speer the architect and visionary of Berlin as the new capital of the German Reich – Germania – intended to enhance the East-West axis running through the Tiergarten. A monument to Prussia's victory in the Franco-German war Emperor Wilhelm I (1861-1888) who ruled and increasingly powerful Prussian State with territorial ambitions to unify Germany under Prussia, had appointed Otto von Bismarck – the Iron Chancellor – as Prussian prime minister in 1862. The Emperor presided over the unveiling of the Column of Victory on September 2, 1873 as a monument to Prussia’s victory in the Franco-German war. This ended the so-called Wars of Unification waged against its neighbours Denmark (1864) Austria (1866) and France (1871). The founding of Berlin as capital of Germany followed and the King Wilhelm I of Prussia was crowned Emperor – Kaiser Wilhelm I at Versailles in January 1871.

These buildings were built between 1896 and 1897 by the “Landhaus-Baugesellschaft Pankow” company, under the direction of the well-known architect Otto March (1845-1913). The construction company planned and financed the houses that were transferred to different owners. The nine semi-detachted houses around the square are based on English-style country houses and were rehabilitated in 1990 true to the original. Currently the charitable institution “Walter und Margarete Cajewitz Stiftung” rent these flats with the aim of senior caring in Pankow. The association “Art and Literature Forum Amalienpark” (www.amalienpark.de) has a gallery, a literature forum and art workshops and offers artists, literati and those interested in art a meeting and exchange place. The swimming pool in Pankow, which is located to the north of Amalienpark, in the Wolfshagener Straße, was built between 1958 and 1960 (architects: Walter Hinkefuß, Heinz Graffunder, Joachim Streichhahn) and between 1973 and 1974 it was expanded with an indoor pool (architects: Karl Ernst Swora, Gunter Derdau). Additional information: Otto March (Charlottenburg, 1845-1913) His family owned between 1836 and 1902 a pottery factory in Charlottenburg, which was created by Karl Friedrich Schinkel (1781-1841). After finishing his compulsory studies, Otto March began in 1866 a traineeship in construction, then studied between 1868 and 1876, with an interruption between 1870 and 1871 because of the war, in the Academy of Architecture and in the Polytechnic of Vienna and took the exams to become an architect. Later he was employed at the Ministerial Commission for Architecture and from 1880 he worked as a private architect. As a member of the Commission for Groß-Berlin (since 1907), the Academy of Architecture (since 1899) and the Academy of Arts (since 1908), he was engaged in an urban development planning of the big community of Berlin. This architect is known, among others, for having planned the inner of the French Dome at the Gendarmenmarkt square (1905) and the German Stadium (1913). His sons, Werner (1894-1976) and Walter March (1898-1969), also worked as architects in Berlin. Werner March was commissioned to rehabilitate the German Stadium, so he demolish it in 1934 and built the new Olympic Stadium for the 1936 Olympic Games.

These buildings were built between 1896 and 1897 by the “Landhaus-Baugesellschaft Pankow” company, under the direction of the well-known architect Otto March (1845-1913). The construction company planned and financed the houses that were transferred to different owners. The nine semi-detachted houses around the square are based on English-style country houses and were rehabilitated in 1990 true to the original. Currently the charitable institution “Walter und Margarete Cajewitz Stiftung” rent these flats with the aim of senior caring in Pankow. The association “Art and Literature Forum Amalienpark” (www.amalienpark.de) has a gallery, a literature forum and art workshops and offers artists, literati and those interested in art a meeting and exchange place. The swimming pool in Pankow, which is located to the north of Amalienpark, in the Wolfshagener Straße, was built between 1958 and 1960 (architects: Walter Hinkefuß, Heinz Graffunder, Joachim Streichhahn) and between 1973 and 1974 it was expanded with an indoor pool (architects: Karl Ernst Swora, Gunter Derdau).

In a piece of land near Pankow, in Panke, there had been a mill since the 16th century. In 1856 Dr. Hermann Killisch von Horn (1821-1886), the founder of the newspaper “Berliner Börsenzeitung” (1855), bought this land. The mill house was reconverted to a family house. Between 1863 and 1864 Killisch von Horn bought other surrounding estates. The Spandauer Straße street (renamed Wilhelm-Kuhr-Straße in 1915), which crossed this land, was moved to the south boundary of the estate. The landscape architect Wilhelm Perring (1838-1907), who later became technical director of Berlin botanic gardens, built between 1868 and 1871 a park having rare plants and trees and artificial hills, among which there is currently a vivarium. There was a manor house, an orangery, pavilions, greenhouses, a lookout tower, ponds, a pheasant run, an Indian padoga, a subterranean grotto with an access to Panke and a great amount of statues. One of the landmarks in Pankow is the main gateway, in an Italian style, which is next to the old cemetery. Its wrought-iron door grilles are still from the time of its construction. On the first cemetery in Pankow, built in 1841 at the Wilhelm-Kuhr-Straße, are buried, among other famous citizens of Pankow, Wilhelm Perring and Hermann Killisch von Horn, whose mausoleum was built in 1904 by the master bricklayer Christian Friedrich Malingriaux. In Februar 1907 the community of Pankow, whose mayor was Wilhem Kuhr (1865-1914), bought the private park. The same year a restaurant was opened in the old gardener house. On the 25 August 1907 the Bürgerpark was officially opened. During the next years the restaurant was extended, a bandstand was built, as well as a playground, a tennis court and toilets. During the First World War the restaurant was used as a military hospital. In 1923 the park was extended to the north of Panke. In 1945 both the park and some buildings were hit several times. In 1955 a unique library was opened in the park. The manor house was demolished in 1961, the gardener house in 1965 and the park was redesigned between 1965 and 1967 by the landscape architect Erwin Stein.

his ten meter deep lake is a place for swimming and recreation. In the early 13th Century, fishermen and hunters founded the small village of Weissensee on the lake’s eastern shore. (Berliner Allee). From shore to shore, Weisse See extends from East to West 305 meters and 350 from North to South. The 1.3 kilometer perimeter road around the 8,400 square-meter lake offers several attractions, including a beach created in 1912 on wooden stilts and filled in with Baltic sand in 1980, the rose garden with a solar clock made of flowers, the open-air theater created in 1957 (3,000 seats), the wildlife sanctuary with wild game (Don’t feed the animals!), the lake bridge platform with two Triton sculptures (sculptor: Hans Schellhorn, 1912), the Milchhäuschen (“little milk house”) restaurant, remodeled in 1967 and completely refurbished in 2005, with its attractive lake terrace and boat rental station. The floating bubbling fountain has been a hallmark of Weissensee since 1969. The large park of 21 hectares featuring trees up to 150 years old and delightful flower beds, and in neighboring streets, the popular Weissensee Flower Festival staged once a year every year since 1963.

Ausgangssituation Im Februar 2014 erwarb das Land Berlin, vertreten durch den Liegenschaftsfonds Berlin Projektgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG, das Erbbaurecht am Spreepark von der insolventen Spreepark GmbH und verfügt damit lasten- und verbindlichkeitsfrei über das Grundstück. Das Spreepark-Gelände mit einer Fläche von 23,4 ha wurde von 1969 bis 2002 als Vergnügungs- und Freizeitpark genutzt. Seit 2002 ist der Freizeitpark nicht mehr dauerhaft für Besucher geöffnet und befindet sich in einer Art Dornröschenschlaf. Bis zur Übernahme durch das Land Berlin verwahrlosten das Gelände und die sich darauf befindlichen Gebäude und verbliebenen Fahrgeschäfte zusehends. Ab 1. Januar 2016 wurde der Grün Berlin GmbH durch das Land Berlin die Aufgabe der Projektentwicklung, eines Gesamtkonzepts, sowie die Bewirtschaftung des Spreeparks übertragen. Seitdem wurden insbesondere dringend erforderliche Sicherungsmaßnahmen im und am Gelände durchgeführt, um die Verkehrssicherheit in den öffentlich genutzten Bereichen zu gewährleisten (öffentliche Wege befinden sich entlang des Geländes an der Spree und durch den Plänterwald). Eine Bestandsaufnahme soll klären welche der zahlreichen Hochbauten und technischen Anlagen, die sich auf dem Gelände befinden, für eine zukünftige Nutzung erhalten bleiben können. Zielsetzung Die Grün Berlin GmbH wird ein neues langfristiges Nutzungskonzept für den Spreepark erarbeiten, mit der Zielsetzung einen neuen Typus eines Kultur- und Freizeitparks zu schaffen. Ziel ist hierbei, auf dem Spreeparkareal einen dem empfindlichen Teilraum angemessenen umweltverträglichen und touristisch attraktiven Kultur- und Freizeitpark zu entwickeln und gemeinsam mit dem „Eierhäuschen“, dessen denkmalgerechte Sanierung bis 2018 erfolgt, mit künstlerischen, kulturellen und gastronomischen Angeboten zu reaktivieren. Eine klassische Freizeitparknutzung mit vielen Fahrgeschäften soll es jedoch nicht geben. Wichtiger Bestandteil des räumlichen Konzeptes ist u.a. die historische Identität des Ortes als Vergnügungspark im Sinne eines anthropogen geprägten Raumes. Der Ort soll durch zusätzliche Komponenten aus den Bereichen Kunst, Kultur und Veranstaltung sowie neuen Nutzungsbausteinen touristischer Art, eine inhaltliche Weiterentwicklung erfahren und einer modernen und zeitgemäßen Nutzung zugeführt werden. Kunst und Kultur könnten das prägende Gesicht des Spreeparks werden, sowohl im Sinne der Produktion wie auch zum Zwecke der Ausstellung und Veranstaltung. Neben Ateliers und Ausstellungsflächen könnte dies auch Flächen für performative Künste und ggfs. auch eine Clubnutzung beinhalten. Für das zum Gesamtkonzept gehörenden Eierhäuschen wird bereits ein Konzept für ein Artists-In-Residence-Projekt (ggfs. auch Writer-In-Residence) erarbeitet. Zur Ermittlung eines Gesamtthemas zur zukünftigen Nutzung des Areals muss auch auf die Geschichte des Ortes rekurriert werden. Als erster und einziger großflächiger Vergnügungspark der ehemaligen DDR hat das Gelände insbesondere im Gedächtnis der Generation der DDR-Jahrgänge eine besondere Bedeutung im Sinne der Freizeitnutzungen. Diese Wahrnehmung, die vor allem positive Erinnerungen hervorruft, sollte auch in der Zukunft eine bleibende Rolle einnehmen. Daher ist zu prüfen inwiefern prägende architektonische Dominanten wie größere Fahrgeschäfte und Gebäudestrukturen erhalten bleiben und in Einzelfällen auch reaktiviert werden können (u.a. das Riesenrad). Einige Baulichkeiten könnten auch als Kulissen auf der Fläche verbleiben und so dem Ort eine Identität und Einmaligkeit verleihen. Die Grün Berlin GmbH verfolgt für das Erscheinungsbild des Parks also ein Konzept, das sich auch aus den vorhandenen raumprägenden Strukturen entwickelt. Doch vor allem durch die zukünftigen Nutzungen der Besucher soll aus dem „Lost Place“ eine neue Parktypologie entstehen, die die Ansprüche und Bedarfe der Bevölkerung wie auch touristische Nutzungsbausteine berücksichtigt. Herangehensweise Erste Gespräche mit Interessensgruppen haben gezeigt, dass hinsichtlich der zukünftigen Nutzungen im Spreepark eine große Diversität an Entwicklungszielen existiert. Aus diesem Grund beabsichtigt die Grün Berlin GmbH eine konsistente Entwicklungsplanung für den Spreepark, mit dem Ziel, Anfang 2017 einen Masterplan basierend auf einer Potentialanalyse vorstellen zu können. Die Beteiligung der Bürgerinnen und Bürger sowie von Interessensgruppen erfolgt in einem Dialogverfahren für den Spreepark. http://gruen-berlin.de/projekt/spreepark

Seit der Öffnung des Tempelhofer Feldes im Jahr 2010 für alle ist Berlin um eine weitere Besonderheit reicher – eine der größten innerstädtischen Freiflächen der Welt. Wo früher Flugzeuge von West-Berlin in alle Welt starteten, gibt es nun über 300 Hektar grünen Freiraum. Auch besondere Vogelarten und spezielle Pflanzen haben in der Weite des Tempelhofer Feldes ihren Lebensraum gefunden. Die zukünftige Entwicklung des Tempelhofer Feldes liegt vor allem in den Händen der Berliner Bevölkerung: Nachdem die Berlinerinnen und Berliner bei einem Volksentscheid gegen eine Randbebauung des Tempelhofer Feldes und für eine weitgehende Erhaltung des jetzigen Zustands gestimmt hatten, trat im Juni 2014 das Gesetz zum Erhalt des Tempelhofer Feldes (ThFG) in Kraft. Es sieht die partizipative Erstellung eines Entwicklungs- und Pflegeplans (EPP) für das Feld vor und teilt es in zwei Flächen mit unterschiedlichem Schutzstatus: während der zentrale Bereich unberührt bleiben wird, können im äußeren Wiesenring bestimmte Bäume gepflanzt oder Spiel- und Sportanlagen gebaut werden. Das Gelände soll unter der Beteiligung der Bürgerinnen und Bürger zukünftig behutsam zu einem vielfältig nutzbaren Freiraum entwickelt werden. Dabei sind Ideen, Anregungen und Anmerkungen zur Gestaltung von allen gefragt. In einem breiten Beteiligungsprozess werden sie seit Herbst 2014 aufgenommen. In der ersten Phase des Verfahrens bis März 2015 wurde ein Online-Dialog gestartet, bei dem interessierte Berlinerinnen und Berliner ihre Vorschläge und Kommentare kommunizierten. Auch die 23 Informations- und Dialogveranstaltungen von September 2014 bis April 2015 hatten eine Reihe von Anregungen und Ideen zum Ergebnis. Der aktuelle Stand findet sich unter www.tempelhofer-feld.berlin.de. Für das Land Berlin hat die Grün Berlin Gruppe sowohl die Bauherrenfunktion bei der Freiraumentwicklung als auch die Verantwortung für die aktuelle Pflege und Bewirtschaftung des Tempelhofer Feldes übernommen. Derzeit werden die Ideen und Anregungen aus dem Beteiligungsprozess auf ihre Realisierbarkeit geprüft und fließen in den Entwicklungs- und Pflegeplan (EPP) ein. Ab 2016 kann dann die Umsetzung der ersten Kernpunkte des EPP vorbereitet werden. Bereits während des Beteiligungsverfahrens kristallisierte sich der Wunsch nach weiteren Aufenthaltsangeboten und Sitzmöglichkeiten deutlich heraus. Deshalb wurden bereits 2015 fünfzig weitere Parkbänke aufgestellt.

Jahrhunderts. Diese ist umgeben von wertvollen naturbelassenen Wäldern und Wiesen. Der Volkspark bildet das Berliner Tor zur offenen Landschaft des Naturparks Barnim. Gleichzeitig setzt er die flachwellige Kulturlandschaft der Barnimer Hochebene mit ihren zahlreichen Kleingewässern sanft in seiner Topografie fort. Während seines 100jährigen Bestehens hat sich der Volkspark zum beliebten Lehr- und Erholungsparkt und Ort des Gärtnerns für jedermann entwickelt. http://gruen-berlin.de/volkspark-pankow

Schloss Biesdorf - Zentrum für Kunst und öffentlichen Raum Berlin ab Herbst 2016 Die Vision: Bis 2018 hat sich Schloss Biesdorf als neue touristische Destination in Berlin auf der internationalen Landkarte einen relevanten Platz erobert. Die spannungsreiche Kunstgeschichte der ehemaligen DDR bildet mit ausgewählten Werken der Sammlung realistischer Kunst der DDR des Kunstarchivs Beeskow die Ausgangslage für die inhaltliche Konzeption. Mit der Schwerpunktsetzung auf Kunst und öffentlichen Raum erfährt das Schloss Biesdorf als neues Zentrum dieser Themen eine inhaltliche Ausrichtung, der bisher in keiner der berlinweit agierenden Kunstinstitutionen gebündelt behandelt wird. Wechselnde Sammlungspräsentationen werden ungewöhnliche Blicke in gesamtgesellschaftlich relevante Themen aus der DDR-Vergangenheit ermöglichen und die Sammlung durch die Gegenüberstellung mit Werken aus der Westdeutschen und Europäischen Kunstgeschichte oder mit künstlerischen Arbeiten aus anderen kommunistischen Systemen anreichern. Durch ein reiches kulturelles Veranstaltungsprogramm mit regelmäßigen Diskussionsveranstaltungen, Lesungen, Konzerten und Künstlergesprächen wird Schloss Biesdorf zu einem lebendigen Reflexions- und Veranstaltungsort. 2017 wird das Schloss zur Internationalen Gartenausstellung in Berlin ein wichtiger Schauplatz der "IGA-Kunst". Nach umfangreichen Renovierungsarbeiten hat das Schloss Biesdorf sein Obergeschoss und sein historisches Aussehen zurück. Die Eröffnung mit der ersten Sammlungspräsentation ist für September 2016 vorgesehen.

Aktivareal & Ruheoase inmitten der Stadt Gewachsene Wildnis und gestalteter Freiraum, erholsamer Rückzugsort und vielseitig nutzbare Freiflächen – am Gleisdreieck ist ein City-Park neuen Typs entstanden. Von Beginn an haben dabei Anwohnerinnen und Anwohner engagiert mitgewirkt. Der rund 26 Hektar große Park am Gleisdreieck, bestehend aus dem Ostpark und Westpark, hat sich so von einer unzugänglichen Brachfläche zu einem generationsübergreifenden Lieblingsort für die Berliner und Touristen entwickelt. Wo vor hundert Jahren ein Bahnknotenpunkt mit industriell geprägtem Umfeld war, bietet heute Berlins moderner Volkspark den passenden Platz für alle: Skater und Joggerinnen, Spaziergängerinnen und Beachvolleyballer, Picknickfans und Sportbegeisterte, Naturentdecker und Technikfreundinnen. Der Park am Gleisdreieck wurde bereits mit dem Architekturpreis Berlin 2013, dem Sonderpreis Deutscher Städtebau 2014 und dem Deutschen Landschaftsarchitektur-Preis 2015 ausgezeichnet.
