Kieze (LOR)

The small-scale structure for Berlin is the lifeworld-oriented rooms (LOR) with delimitation according to professional criteria. These are used for socio-spatial planning purposes and have replaced the spatial reference system of the “statistical areas / traffic cells”. Data on the population structures in these planning areas are available online in the Kiezatlas der Sozialraumdaten. The key numbers of the LOR consist of the two digits of the district (Pankow = 03), the forecast area, the district region (roughly aligned with the districts) and the actual planning areas.

history

1920 to 2001

When Greater Berlin was formed in 1920, the 19th administrative district of Berlin was formed from the following areas, which until then belonged to the Niederbarnim district , the list also states the area (in hectares (ha)) and the number of inhabitants at that time:

Rural community Pankow (629  ha , 57,962 inhabitants) Rural community Blankenburg (400 ha, 1161 inhabitants) Blankenburg manor district (282 ha, 156 inhabitants) Rural community of Blankenfelde (547 ha, 549 inhabitants)

Blankenfelde manor district (519 ha, 360 inhabitants) Rural community of Buch (284 ha, 3917 inhabitants) Manor district Buch (1612 ha, 2562 inhabitants) Rural community Buchholz (1155 ha, 4905 inhabitants) Rural community Heinersdorf (394 ha, 1006 inhabitants)

Rural community Karow (533 ha, 949 inhabitants) Rural community Niederschönhausen (551 ha, 18,913 inhabitants) Manor district Niederschönhausen with Schönholz (66 ha, 362 inhabitants) Eastern part of the rural community Rosenthal (479 ha, 1725 inhabitants) Rosenthal manor district (341 ha, 129 inhabitants)

The western part of the rural community Rosenthal including Wilhelmsruh came to the Reinickendorf district . The district was named Pankow after its most populous district . The Pankow town hall also became the seat of the district mayor and the district council . In 1930, the Pankow district was reached by the Berlin subway with the opening of the Schönhauser Allee - Vinetastraße section .

The Berlin regional reform with effect from April 1, 1938 resulted in numerous straightening of the district boundaries as well as some major changes to the area. The area west of the Berlin Northern Railway on Wollankstrasse was reclassified from the Pankow district to the Wedding district . The Reinickendorf district surrendered its area east of the Northern Railway, consisting of Wilhelmsruh and the Waldsteg settlement to the south, to the Pankow district. Due to the border changes, the population of the district increased by 1,629 and the area of ​​the district increased by 81  hectares .

At the end of the Second World War , the Red Army captured the Pankow district in the Battle of Berlin on April 22, 1945. According to the zone protocols , it was assigned to the Soviet sector in the four- sector city ​​of Berlin and after the division of Berlin belonged to East Berlin , from 1952 as "Pankow district".

Schönhausen Palace in the Niederschönhausen district , built between 1690 and 1740

After the founding of the GDR, the residences of the top management personnel of the SED and the GDR government were located in the restricted area on Mayakowskiring until the 1960s . The nearby Schönhausen Palace was the seat of the President of the GDR , Wilhelm Pieck , from 1949 to 1960 , and then to 1964 of the State Council Chairman Walter Ulbricht . That is why “Pankow” was considered a synonym for the GDR leadership, especially among the western public.

After the construction of the Berlin Wall in August 1961, the exact course of the district border along the northern runway became important. Despite their name, the Wilhelmsruh and Schönholz S-Bahn stations were located in West Berlin and were no longer accessible from the Pankow district. The Wollankstraße S-Bahn station was in the Pankow district, but its eastern access was also blocked. The station remained accessible from West Berlin.

In 1985 the districts of Karow, Heinersdorf and Blankenburg were reclassified into the district of Weißensee , which in turn gave up a large part of its area to the new district of Hohenschönhausen .

Schönhausen Palace served as a guest house for state visitors to the GDR from 1964 to October 1989 . During the peaceful revolution , the Central Round Table of the GDR met in the Schönhausen Palace complex from the end of December 1989 to March 1990 .

With German reunification on October 3, 1990, the Pankow district became part of the federal state of Berlin. On September 16, 2000, the U2 underground line was extended from Vinetastraße to Berlin-Pankow station.

Pankow district since 2001

On January 1, 2001, the Pankow district was merged with the Weissensee and Prenzlauer Berg districts as part of the Berlin district reform . After lengthy disputes about the name, the areas involved were able to agree on the short name of Pankow by resolution of its district council meeting .

coat of arms

→ Main article : Coat of arms of the Pankow district

Blazon : In silver above a continuous red wall adjoining above without joints, with three open gates without gate wings, the middle of the arches wider and higher than the outer ones; below an eight-spoke red wheel, which above its center is accompanied on both sides by a green hop umbel with a leaf. A red three-tower wall crown rests on the shield, the central tower of which is covered with the Berlin coat of arms.

The search for a coat of arms for the Pankow district came to an end on July 28, 2009. In the district, the decision was made by the district administration on the recommendation of the coat of arms commission. After the administrative reform in 2001, the former smaller Pankow district merged into the Pankow district. At the end of 2006, the dispute over the district name was ended and on October 1, 2007, a call was made to find a coat of arms . On April 30, 2008, the district assembly decided to commission the heraldist Jörg Mantzsch with the design, who submitted several drafts according to given content for decision. After some discussions between the district office and the executing heraldist, the Pankow district office announced the approved draft on February 24, 2009. The official award of the coat of arms by the Senate of the State of Berlin took place on July 28, 2009.

The coat of arms of the old Pankow district was awarded as part of the 750th anniversary of Berlin in 1987. It takes up elements of the former rural community of Pankow and shows “in a silver shield two crossed golden grain sheaves on green ground, held together by a silver ribbon. A golden rake is stuck into the sheaves upright, a golden flail to the right and a scythe with a blue leaf to the left. All three devices have a red handle. The sheaves are covered with two overturned and diagonally crossed blue spades with red stems ”. The eight-spoke wheel was adopted in a simplified form from the Weissensee coat of arms . As part of the district reform, the coat of arms was initially supplemented by a three-tower wall crown , the middle tower of which is covered with the Berlin coat of arms . The crown of the wall is the connecting element of all Berlin districts .
