geography

Position and extent

The district of Hermsdorf is located in the central north of Reinickendorf and, with an area of ​​around 6.1 km², is the sixth largest of the eleven districts in the district.

Its northern boundary is the city limits of Berlin and its imaginary extension in a westerly direction to the Tegel forest along Burgfrauenstrasse and the Falkentaler Steig. In the northeast, the Brandenburg municipality of Glienicke / Nordbahn in the Oberhavel district joins the so-called duck's bill . The district Frohnau is located northwest of Hermsdorf .

The demarcation to Tegel in the west follows the edge of the forest until it meets the Tegeler Fließ , an ice age drainage channel. The rest of the border is identical to the river valley up to the city limits in the northeast. Beyond the brook, to the east and south-east, are the districts of Lübars and Waidmannslust .

structure

The historic town center is at the eastern end of the Alt-Hermsdorf street. This area is a listed building . The origin of Hermsdorf lies in the southeast of today's local area, about one kilometer west of the Hermsdorf lake , the largest body of water in the district. In between is the so-called "Seebadviertel", to the north of it former clay pits and peat cuttings as well as the Waldsee with the surrounding Waldseeviertel.

Heinsestrasse at the S-Bahn station Berlin-Hermsdorf has established itself as the center of the district. To the northwest of it is the spa district with the Dominikus hospital. The municipal cemetery Hermsdorf on Frohnauer Straße already belongs geographically to the district Frohnau.

history

Hermsdorf village church

At the end of the 11th century a late Slavic settlement was built on the Tegeler Fließ . It was a semicircular structure of a dead end village extended like a square ( Sackanger , similar to the museum village Düppel and the original structure of Lankwitz ), but not a Rundling , as the misleading street name "Rundlingsteig" suggests. Around 1230 German newcomers took the village into their possession while retaining the Slavic population. With the takeover of the Slavic settlement in German hands, a wooden church will have been built as usual. The exact time is unknown, but in 1988, archaeological traces of a wooden church were found among the remains of a half-timbered church built in the 16th century on the Sackanger during excavations by the Berlin State Monuments Office, which probably date from the first half of the 13th century. Hermsdorf was first mentioned in 1349 (as Hermanstorp ). In the land book of Charles IV of 1375 five farms are named with the note that they have no (measured) hooves , but only (unmeasured) fields. In addition, three desolate courtyards are mentioned. For the first time in 1450 16 hooves are counted, two of which are desolate. In 1541, two years after the Reformation in Brandenburg, a pastor is named who looked after the community from Dalldorf (today: Wittenau ). The late medieval half-timbered church was demolished in 1756 and replaced by a new half-timbered church at the current location of the village church .

Hermsdorf went to Ritter Busse Milow in 1349 as part of the transformation into an estate, and from 1585 to 1694 to von Götze zu Rosenthal. Around 1585 this family built a knight's seat, which was destroyed around 1640 in the Thirty Years War . Furthermore, from 1489 to 1634 possessions in the village were recorded by the von Pfuel .

In 1865 a postal agency was set up. A brine spring was discovered in 1898, but it dried up again ten years later. The place was then called Hermsdorf in der Mark .

A ground-level stop for the Berlin Northern Railway was opened in 1877, the tracks of which were raised between 1909 and 1910 on what is now the embankment. The trains of the electric S-Bahn have stopped at today's Hermsdorf station , which was inaugurated in 1913 .

In 1907 a gas and a waterworks were built, and in 1914 the fire station was inaugurated. In 1920 Hermsdorf was incorporated into Greater Berlin and the Dominikus Hospital was inaugurated.

Between 1923 and 1926 the Hermsdorfer Celluloidwarenfabrik also had celluloid dolls on offer; they had a ladybug with the letters DADA as their trademark .

Remarks

  1. ↑ A Rundling forms at least a three-quarter circle, from whose courtyards all have direct access to their fields. This is not possible in Hermsdorf due to its location on the river.
  2. ↑ Around the same time (1539) it is expressly noted for two Slavic villages also located on the water, namely Rahnsdorf and Woltersdorf, that they have no churches, i.e. not even wooden churches. Rahnsdorf is also unhindered.
