The Brosepark is a public park in Berlin-Niederschönhausen that has existed since 1920. It has an area of about four hectares.
Naming and history
The park is named after the Pankow banker Cristian Wilhelm Brose , who bought the property with a house built for the sexton Palm in 1764.
The community of Niederschönhausen bought the park in 1920, which until then had been owned by the Brose family. Except for the Küster-Palm-Haus, the buildings suffered severe damage in the Second World War. They were demolished at the end of the 1950s because they were in disrepair. The same fate befell the sexton Palm House in 1988. In the mid-1990s it was rebuilt with sponsorship and Senate funds. The park was extensively reconstructed from 1985 to 1987.
In the period up to 1943 there were plans to build an open-air theater in the Brosepark .
Use and equipment
The rebuilt Küster-Palm-Haus is the seat of the Friends of Chronik Pankow e. V. The adjacent Max-Delbrück-Oberschule uses the park for physical education. The park is accessible to everyone and is often used as a jogging area or as a shortcut.
The bronze sculpture Mother with Child by the sculptor Reinhold Felderhoff has been in the park since 1976 . The 215 cm high figure, created in 1911, stood on Pankower Anger between 1955 and 1971 .
Trees
The trees in the Brosepark are very valuable. Because of their rarity and beauty, two yew trees, a white elm , a sycamore maple , a hornbeam and a plane tree have been declared natural monuments .
