Monuments in Spandau

The monuments in Spandau were created relatively late in what is now Berlin's district , as the city on the Havel as an agricultural town had little tax revenue. Although the number of residents increased as a result of the expansion of the armaments factories, the income remained low, as the army workshops did not have to pay any trade tax. The oldest monuments in Spandau are clearly oriented towards the function of the city as a garrison town ( war memorials ). It was not until later that personal monuments of the Elector, Emperor and Imperial Chancellor were added.

Definitions

Monuments are artistically designed monuments or structures (statues, statues, sculptures, steles , wayside shrines , memorial stones, stumbling blocks ) that were created with the aim of commemorating a historical event or anniversary, a custom or individual or several historical personalities to remember in public. As a rule, they have inscriptions or tablets.

The monuments in this list do not include cemetery grave monuments for individual persons, architectural or ground monuments according to the Berlin Monument Protection Act or natural monuments according to the Berlin Nature Protection Act . Artistic sculptures in public spaces that were not erected to commemorate (“ art in architecture ”) are also not considered to be monuments .

A memorial plaque is understood here to mean inscriptions, written tablets or picture panels that are also intended to publicly remind of a historical event or anniversary, a custom or individual or several historical personalities without being erected in connection with a monument.

The memorial plaques do not include inscriptions or tablets that are merely explanatory (e.g. about the construction history of a building).

In the headings of the individual monuments and memorial plaques, the respective year of construction - if known - is given in brackets.

It led from Kemperplatz on the southern edge of the Tiergarten to the Victory Column, which at that time stood on Königsplatz near the Reichstag building . Margrave Albrecht was the main figure of the first of 32 monument groups of the rulers of Brandenburg and Prussia, with which the history of Brandenburg and Berlin was to be remembered. In the Berlin vernacular the venerable statues were called "dolls". The popular saying "... stay up until the dolls ..." referred to this and meant having to stay up late, because an evening rendezvous on Siegesallee could take a long time due to the distance to the then city center. As early as 1938, the figures were removed from their original place because they stood in the way of Albert Speer during his gigantic transformation of Berlin into the “ world capital Germania ”. The second location, the large Sternallee, was also removed after the monuments were dismantled in 1950. It was not until the 1980s that the monument to Albrecht the Bear reached the citadel. The monument group was erected by Walter Schott , and the unveiling took place on May 6, 1898. The bishops belonging to this monument group have been stored in the Spandau Citadel since May 2009 .

Partition Monument Staaken (2000)

The churchyard of the Staaken village church is a place that was on the inner-German border for 39 years . Shortly after the Second World War, Staaken, which was part of the Berlin district of Spandau, was divided up as part of an area swap; From 1951, the "West Staaken", which was subject to Soviet control, was administered from the East Berlin district of Mitte . Staaken was divided by a border that manifested itself drastically with the construction of the wall on August 13, 1961. Now the village church was directly on the demarcation line on the western side, in the area administered by the GDR. It was inaccessible to the residents of West Berlin, but it could still serve as a parish church for the residents of West Staaken. As part of the Unification Treaty , Staaken, which had become an independent municipality in the Potsdam district after 1961, was reintegrated into the Spandau district. To commemorate the division, an old black granite cross was set up on the northeast edge of the village cemetery at the beginning of 2000, which was provided free of charge by the stonemason Karlheinz Schafhausen.

Former monuments and plaques

During the Second World War , the district did not experience losses of memorials directly through the effects of the war, but through so-called “non-ferrous metal collections”, officially “ metal donations of the German people ”, with which the high demand for metals for war production was to be covered. Already by decree of August 28, 1939, the Berlin district authorities had to report monuments and sculptures made of bronze or copper that were suitable for a metal donation. 16 monuments, sculptures and fountains were reported for Spandau. On May 3, 1941, the district offices received a list of the objects to be melted down. The specific art objects were then demolished and melted down between September 8 and October 20, 1942. On December 12, 1944, the meltdown was officially ended. The following monuments have been dismantled or destroyed:

Memorial of the Infantry Shooting School Ruhleben (1872)

Memorial to those who fell in the German Unification Wars (1876)

The funds for the erection of the monument, which at the time cost 6300  marks, came largely from donations from the residents of Spandau. The memorial was originally designed by the sculptor Ernst Herter and was to be made from Swedish granite by the Berlin granite grinding company Kessel & Röhl ; however, the draft was never implemented. The opening, originally planned for September 2, 1875, had to be postponed by one year to September 2, 1876, as the granite ordered arrived late in Berlin and a legal dispute over the monument had also sparked. On September 2, 1875, only the foundation stone was laid.

In the case of the monument (unknown sculptor) executed by the Berlin granite grinding company Kessel & Röhl , a two meter high square plinth made of red granite rested on a square step substructure (6 steps). On the base was a seven meter high Doric granite column, which carried a "mourning" eagle with outstretched wings made of gilded cast iron . In 1919 the eagle was replaced by an eagle made of shell limestone , which had angled wings (sculptor Paul Reichelt ), due to severe corrosion damage , which had already led to a wing falling off .

On the pedestal, the dead were listed on three stone slabs with their names and rank in gilded letters (war of 1864: 1 dead; war of 1866: 3 dead; war of 1870/1871: 29 dead).

Inscription of the board on the west side (text in capital letters ): 1864: / Thöns, Fritz, Musketier. / 1866: / Bartsch, Adolf, private. / Schröder, Friedrich, Gren. / Schneider, Albert, Muskt.

The inscription on the 4th panel (front) read (text in capital letters ): Den für König / und / Vaterland / 1864 1866 1870/71 / Those who stayed / from the / parishes / of the city / Spandau.

In individual sources, the memorial is also named as the “memorial for the fallen of the parishes of Spandau”. The expression Spandau is curious because it was not until June 4, 1877 that the city name was officially spelled with “Spandau” instead of “Spandow”.

The memorial, still described in 1925, was destroyed during the Second World War.

Statue of Prince Otto von Bismarck (1901)

• On Bismarckplatz, roughly in front of the Feldstrasse 52 property ( 52 ° 32 ′ 36.9 ″  N , 13 ° 12 ′ 18.6 ″  E ), dismantled or destroyed

The construction of this monument was planned by the citizens of Spandau since 1890. When Otto von Bismarck died on July 30, 1898, there was a fund of 6,500  marks accumulated through donations . The sculptor Georg Meyer-Steglitz was commissioned with the production of the monument, which was inaugurated on May 10, 1901, the 30th anniversary of the peace treaty signed by Bismarck for Germany with France. The location between Schönwalder Strasse and Feldstrasse, previously popularly known as "Bürgerplatz", was officially named "Bismarckplatz". In the city forest, the forester Bein planted the "Bismarck oak" as a memorial (location unclear).

The 2.65 meter high statue of Bismarck ( cast bronze ) was on a three meter high base made of unground granite in which only the word Bismarck was carved. On the front of the base a gnarled oak tree was carved out in relief, in the foliage of which the bronze family coat of arms of the Bismarcks had been placed. The three-tier substructure of the monument was made of stones from the old fortress wall. On the left and right, massive, simple pillars delimited the substructure. The substructure carried a Gothic band with the famous words from Bismarck's speech in the Reichstag on February 6, 1888:

We Germans fear god

but nothing else in the world

The Bismarck statue showed him in a wrinkled coat over a uniform of the Halberstadt Cuirassier Regiment von Seydlitz, whose chief Bismarck had been. With the left hand, the figure leaned on a presented saber.

During the First World War in autumn 1918, the statue was intended to be melted down for armament purposes, but was initially retained. During the Second World War, the statue was melted down in 1942. The base was destroyed by bombs and removed after 1945.

Memorial for the 200th anniversary of the founding of the Kingdom of Prussia (1901)

The dedications on the base read: Inscription (front of the base): Wilhelm / der / Große Inscription (back of base): Erected by / the grateful / citizenry / the city / Spandau 1909 In 1930, the Spandau magistrate decided that the Kaiser Wilhelm I memorial should be left in its location, thus joining a corresponding decision by the Deputation for Art and Education. In 1942 the bronze sculpture was melted down during the Second World War and the memorial was demolished.

Along a 3.80-meter boulder block (15 tons) from the Odenwald were flying up 25 Bronze - carrier pigeons assembled. In 1942 the carrier pigeons (130 kg) were melted down as part of the collection of non-ferrous metals. The boulder itself overgrown and was almost forgotten. After the end of the Second World War, the Wröhmännerpark was completely redesigned, which led to its exposure.

Milestones

In the 18th and 19th centuries, milestones indicated distances on the roadside, marked paths for the post office and helped to measure the roads . In the period from 1800 to 1806 all Prussian main postal routes were measured and the milestones were then set up at the most important of these postal routes. There are two milestones in Spandau that are not yet under monument protection :

Milestone Schönwalder Allee

In the Spandau city forest there used to be a sandstone obelisk on a square base from the middle of the 18th century, which is said to have been there in 1934 (see: Günther Jahn, p. 344). Nothing is known about the whereabouts of this milestone.

• Location: Schönwalder Allee ( Hakenfelde ).

Milestone Seegefelder Strasse

According to a protocol from the 18th century about a trip by stagecoach to Spandau, a milestone is said to have been “on the Spandauer Amtsacker at the point where the path to Seegefeld leaves” (Spandauer Heimathefte, December 1957, p. 6). Nothing is known about the whereabouts of this milestone.

• Location: probably Seegefelder / Staakener Straße ( Spandau ). 52 ° 32 '11.3 "  N , 13 ° 11' 26.1"  E

Milestone Staaken (1832)

This post milestone is one of the few in the Berlin / Brandenburg region that has still been preserved in the original. He still has the original Prussian eagle . This makes it an important building in the history of traffic in Prussia and Spandau. In 1832 it was erected as part of the Neue Hamburger Chaussee (today's B 5 ), which was built at that time . The milestone originally stood between the villages of Dallgow and Rohrbeck (see the Prussian original measuring table sheet from 1835), since at that time the zero point of the calculation and measurement for setting up the milestones was the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. After the zero point for the Prussian Fernchausseen had been set on a candelabra in front of the Berlin City Palace around 1850 , the milestone was moved around 1500 meters in the direction of Berlin, southeast of Dallgow. The metric system was introduced in Germany around 1875; the whole milestones have now been implemented at intervals of ten kilometers; thus this milestone has now reached Staaken in the position “20 km to Berlin”. During the Second World War , the house in its neighborhood was destroyed by an aerial mine , and the milestone was splintered. After a restoration in 1984 by the monument preservation department of the Nauen district (the stonemason was Holger Mey from Falkensee ), it was restored again in 2010. The all-mile obelisk on Nennhauser Damm in Staaken, made in 1832 by the stonemason Trippel for a price of 68  thalers , is in good condition. The milestone indicates that there are still three (Prussian) miles to Berlin; the obelisk is decorated with a cast iron eagle. The distances to Spandau and Nauen are shown on the side. Inscriptions: III MILES to BERLIN 2½ miles to Nauen 1½ mile to Spandow Location: in front of the property Nennhauser Damm 104 ( Staaken ). 52 ° 31 '43 "  N , 13 ° 8' 10.3"  E

Half-mile stone Schönwalder Allee

An oak tree on Schönwalder Allee bears the name "Halbmeileneiche"; it is said to have been a half-milestone here (which no longer exists today).

• Location: Schönwalder Allee, Rehberge car park north of Johannesstift ( Hakenfelde ). 52 ° 34 '38.2 "  N , 13 ° 10' 51.5"  E

Osthavelland district stone (1887)

This obelisk was probably erected around 1887 (when the city of Spandau left the Osthavelland district ) as a district boundary stone at its current location; The label has the words "Landkreis Osthavelland". It is a reworked former post half-milestone made of sandstone. The stone, which weighs around 1.5 tons with a base and has been in the Spandau district since an area was exchanged with the GDR (1988), was in a desolate state in 2010. Due to the heavy weathering, especially on the back of the monument, restoration and conservation of the stone was urgently necessary; In November 2010, the Upper School Building Technology I in Berlin-Spandau started restoring the stone as part of a training project (stonemason training).

• Location: Schönwalder Allee, near Stone Bridge ( Hakenfelde ). 52 ° 35 '43.8 "  N , 13 ° 9' 28.5"  E

Milestone Falkenseer Damm (1960)

With the processed boulder, which is around one meter high, the distances to Falkensee and Berlin are displayed at the junction from Falkenseer Platz to Falkenseer Damm . The stone is a foundation of the Spandauer Wirtschaftshof. Its inauguration took place on November 11, 1960 Inscription (east side): Falkensee / 7.5 km Inscription (west side): Berlin / 14.5 km

• Location: Falkenseer Damm ( Spandau ). 52 ° 32 '26.7 "  N , 13 ° 12' 9"  E
