Lichtenberg Manor Park

The Gutspark Lichtenberg is a park in Berlin district of Lichtenberg , which got its official name in the 1990s. It was prepared on a part of the former manor park of the Roeder manor with the inclusion of preserved plants.

history

The green area was built in the 1970s on the area of ​​an estate of the Roeder family built in the 17th century . The manor park surrounding the manor initially extended from Landsberger Chaussee in the north to Frankfurter Allee in the south.

School in the manor park

After the large landowners were expropriated in 1945, the farm buildings were demolished and the garden was no longer maintained. The manor house became the parsonage of the parish church on the former Lichtenberger Anger (today Loeperplatz) . Instead of the farm buildings, a kindergarten was built around 1950 , later also a crèche and in the 1970s a standard school building , the POS "Vinzent Porombka", renamed after 1990 the elementary school in the manor park . All buildings have been preserved and could be renovated after the political change .

Description of the park and subsequent facilities

Listed yew tree in the manor park

Noteworthy are two listed trees in the estate park, a maple-leaved plane tree and a common yew , each more than a hundred and fifty years old. Together with many other deciduous and coniferous trees in the park (oak, robinia, pines) they form a relaxing green lung.

In addition to the buildings mentioned above, there is also a well-kept children's playground in the park. The footpaths through the park, some of which are paved with gravel, are not illuminated, which is why the Greens asked the district office to install a lighting system in 2017.

The Lichtenberger Tennis Club (founded as a tennis section in the BSG Einheit Lichtenberg in 1951, continued under the new name in 1990) has its clubhouse and tennis courts at the Gutspark (formerly at Bornitzstraße 17). However, these are not new buildings, but the sports club found a dilapidated clubhouse, which burned down to a large extent in 1997, and three former tennis courts probably from the 1920s, restored, expanded and modernized everything.

Transmission tower in the park

A special feature in Berlin is that a high-voltage overhead line runs across the southern area of ​​the park.

Right next to the park to the south, real estate entrepreneur Muhsal had a residential complex with multi-family houses (apartment houses) called Wohnen am Gutspark built by 2015 .
