Geological wall in the Blankenfelde botanical complex

Zache attended the Sophien-Realgymnasium in Weinmeisterstraße in Berlin-Mitte. From 1882 he studied chemistry and natural sciences at the universities in Berlin and Halle . In Halle he received his doctorate in 1886 with the theme "On the number and size of the medullary rays in some hardwoods" to Dr. phil. The main topic of his lectures and publications in the following years was the geology of the Mark. In 1893 he published a geognostic sketch of the Berlin underground. 1891–1896 he designed and built the geological wall for the Berlin Volkspark Humboldthain. The geological wall represents an ideal section through the layers of the earth's crust of Central Europe. For this he used 123 different rocks from the Harz, Rhineland, Saxony, Silesia and Thuringia. In 1912 the geological wall was converted into the Blankenfelde botanical complex . From 1892 until his retirement, Zache worked as a senior teacher at the Andreas Realgymnasium in Koppenstrasse in Berlin-Friedrichshain.

Eduard Zache was a member of the German Geological Society and the Brandenburgia (Society for Local History of the Province of Brandenburg).
