history

The green area was planned in 1928 by the Reinickendorf District Office as the builder according to the design of the Berlin City Garden Director Erwin Barth , and the pool was laid out in the early 1930s. According to the design, the pool was to be surrounded by a double-rowed avenue of trees in the form of a drop, but this has not been preserved. Between 1927 and 1939 the Paddenpuhl settlement was built around the Breitkopf basin , which was planned by architects Fritz Beyer, Diekmann and Scherer. In the course of the following decades, the basin received embankments, which have meanwhile developed into biotopes, as well as landscaped planting. In addition, a green connection to Klemke and Emmentaler Strasse was created. On November 12th, 2015, a play and sports facility was completed on the eastern side of the pool with a total cost of 240.00 euros.
