Friedrichsfelde is a district in the Berlin district of Lichtenberg . It is characterized by its historical development in the historic center , but above all by large housing estates that arose between the 1960s and 1990s. The district is known in particular for the Berlin Zoo with Friedrichsfelde Palace .
history
The village of Rosenfelde was founded by Low German settlers around 1230. The documentary mention of pastor Ludwig zu Rosenfelde is the first evidence of the village in 1265. The first stone church, which no longer exists today, was built in the second half of the 13th century. The land book of Emperor Karl IV. From 1375 indicated 104 hooves for Rosenfelde , of which 6 were parish hooves ( Wedemhof ). This very unusual size includes about twice the number of hooves, as they were on the Barnim on the average for planned German villages .
Rosenfelde was 1699 after the Elector Friedrich III. renamed Friedrichsfelde .
The area around the former anger forms the historic village center .
The Friedrichsfelde Colony on Frankfurter Chaussee (today: Alt-Friedrichsfelde Street ) became the preferred place of residence for craftsmen.
The Brandenburg General Naval Director Benjamin Raule acquired Rosenfelde at the end of the 17th century and built a pleasure house there on the road to Köpenick , which later became Friedrichsfelde Castle . In 1717 the property was transferred to Margrave Albrecht Friedrich von Brandenburg-Schwedt , an uncle of the " Soldier King ", who had the original castle expanded. After his death in 1731, his son Carl inherited the castle. Eventually the property passed to his cousin Prince Ferdinand of Prussia , the youngest brother of " Old Fritz ". Four of his children, including his son Louis Ferdinand Prince of Prussia , were born there. In 1896 the Karlshorst colony (then: Carlshorst ) was detached from Sigismund von Treskow 's Friedrichsfelde estate and became part of the Friedrichsfelde community. Karlshorst then developed into a country house colony.
In 1920 the community Friedrichsfelde was incorporated from the Brandenburg district of Niederbarnim in Greater Berlin . In 1945 Friedrichsfelde was temporarily the seat of the Berlin headquarters of the Red Army (Alt-Friedrichsfelde / Rosenfelder Straße). At the intersection at Am Tierpark / Alfred-Kowalke-Strasse, a memorial stone commemorates Nikolai Bersarin , the first Berlin city commandant in 1945, who had a fatal accident there in a motorcycle accident. The group Ulbricht had after their return from the Soviet Union from May to July 1945 based in the Einbecker Straße 41. She supported the Soviet authorities in the reorganization of public life and the administration of Berlin and prepared the creation of political parties, trade unions and organizations in the Soviet zone of occupation .
The Friedenskreis, which has been working in the Friedrichsfelde parish since 1984, made political history. He was one of the most active East Berlin resistance groups against SED rule.
During the administrative reform in 2001 , the district was redesigned. The section located north of the Prussian Ostbahn (Berlin – Kostrzyn line ) on Rhinstrasse has since been part of the (Alt-) Lichtenberg district . The Friedrichsfelde Central Cemetery, established in 1881, with the Socialist Memorial , was also assigned to Lichtenberg.
Development
The district is characterized by multi-storey new buildings. The northern boundary is formed by the railway line of the Ostbahn with the S-Bahn station Friedrichsfelde Ost , in the east in the direction of Biesdorf ( Berlin outer ring ) and south in the direction of Karlshorst ( VnK route ), railway embankments also delimit the district. The district of Rummelsburg connects to the west .
Historic buildings
Along the Alt-Friedrichsfelde street , but especially in the historic center of Friedrichsfelde, some historic residential buildings from the 19th century have been preserved, which are now under monument protection . This also includes the Friedrichsfelde village church . In Short Street , the Catholic Church is to Good Shepherd . In the south-eastern part is the Berlin Zoo , which was set up in the former palace park and opened in 1955, with Friedrichsfelde Palace .
Residential high-rise buildings and office buildings
The majority of the residential buildings are six- to twenty-story prefabricated buildings , for which new areas were developed between the 1960s and 1990s, and a completely new road network was created. The then Hans-Loch-Viertel on both sides of Sewanstrasse was the first large new housing estate in East Berlin after the Second World War .
Immediately north of the zoo is the site of the education and administration center, a large administrative complex that houses the Berlin-Brandenburg Statistics Office and the Berlin University of Economics and Law . It emerged from an area that was built on and sealed off in the GDR era in 1984, on which the Berlin District Administration of the Ministry for State Security was based.
Splanemann settlement
The Splanemann settlement is located on the southern border of the district . It was built between 1926 and 1930 as the first prefabricated housing estate in Germany based on a design by the architect Wilhelm Primke and at the instigation of Martin Wagner , the then Berlin city planning officer . 138 apartments were originally built in the two- and three-storey houses, some of which were destroyed in the Second World War .
It was initially called Kriegerheimsiedlung after the main access road, Kriegerheimstrasse. The settlement has had its current name since 1951, after Kriegerheimstrasse was renamed Splanemannstrasse. Namesake is the resistance fighter Herbert Splanemann .
