The Mauerpark is a park in Berlin . Its name goes back to the Berlin Wall built in 1961 , which at this point formed the border between the districts of Prenzlauer Berg and Wedding . This is where the border runs between the districts of Prenzlauer Berg ( Pankow district ) and Gesundbrunnen ( Mitte district ). To the west is the Brunnenviertel , which belongs to Gesundbrunnen , and to the east is the Gleimviertel, which belongs to Prenzlauer Berg . The elongated open-air area runs along the section of Schwedter Straße, which is closed to motor traffic, between Eberswalder and Bernauer Straße and the Ringbahn . Since there are comparatively few green spaces in the densely built-up Prenzlauer Berg, the Mauerpark has developed into a popular place for local recreation, which offers a home to artists, musicians and families, especially at weekends, and has made a name for itself beyond Berlin.

history

overview

The eastern part of the Mauerpark was first used as arable land and later as a parade ground. After the wall was built , from 1961 it belonged to the border area between West and East Berlin . The part east of Schwedter Strasse was in the Soviet sector , the western part was part of the French sector. The old freight yard of the Nordbahn , which was opened in 1877 and later called Eberswalder Strasse station , was located in this area and closed in 1985.

First uses of the area

Until it was incorporated into old Berlin in 1829, the area of ​​today's Mauerpark was at the gates of the city, with the northern Feldmark being divided into the Berlin Hufen , the traditional corridor of the urban farmers . Since 1709, a large part of this arable land was occupied by the Acker Tractus of the Königlichen Vorwerk Niederschönhausen , which lay parallel to the Chaussee to Pankow (since 1841 Schönhauser Allee ) and was extended westward to the Schwedter Straße by royal decree in 1780. The Schwedter Straße was still called Verlorener Weg until 1862 , which illustrates its function as a simple connecting path between agricultural areas that "gets lost in nothing" before it was finally elevated to street rank. With the separation and sale of the Berlin Hufen in the 1820s to private investors, Wilhelm Griebenow bought the Vorwerk, which was facing bankruptcy , in 1823 with the intention of parceling it out and selling it again at a profit.

Creation of a parade ground

In 1825 Griebenow sold a large part of the area to the Prussian military , who set up a parade ground for the Kaiser Alexander Regiment . Due to a single poplar growing on the parade ground (now in Topsstrasse), it was popularly known as the "parade ground for lonely poplar". During the March riots in 1848 , the parade ground gained considerable fame on March 26, 1848: A huge crowd of up to 20,000 workers in Berlin at the time demonstrated against the Prussian king and demanded: regular and shorter working hours, higher wages on Sundays and public holidays as well Introduction of compulsory schooling. The use of the area as a parade ground for the imperial army continued until the beginning of the 20th century. The place was also used more and more frequently for school-like and club-like physical exercises, as the densely populated district lacked appropriate open spaces. With the increasing popularity of the soccer game in working groups, a game between the Berlin and Dresden city ​​teams took place on April 18, 1892 on the parade ground , in which the Berliners lost 3-0. In July of the same year, the Hertha BSC football club was founded and the Einsame Pappel parade ground served as a venue for many years.

By 1900 the area around the parade ground was already densely built up, so that it was heavily  frequented by residents - mostly members of the proletariat . More and more often residents and police complained to the police headquarters about intolerable conditions on the premises, to which everyone had access. The military's plan to enclose the parade ground with a wall, however, failed because the city did not want to cover the costs of its construction. When the complaints did not end, however, the War Ministry agreed in 1910 to sell part of the parade ground. Two parties were interested in the property: On the one hand, the Prussian State Railroad , which wanted to expand the area of ​​the Old North Station, and on the other hand, the Protestant church, which wanted to expand the Erich-Frommel-Heim welfare center from Schönhauser Allee to the west. Ultimately, with the approval of the city council, in June 1911 the Berlin magistrate bought the eastern part of the parade ground from the military treasury for 6.5 million marks (adjusted for purchasing power in today's currency around 35 million euros), in the place of which a play and sports park was to be built. The city gardening director Albert Brodersen received the order for the planning . The use of the Exer as a sports and gaming facility continued, only during the two world wars was the site temporarily used for military purposes. After the First World War , small colonies and barracks were also built, which shaped the appearance of the site until after the Second World War .

Transformation into a sports facility in 1951

In 1951, on the occasion of the III. World Youth Festival in just a few months the new Berlin sports park and stadium Einsame Pappel built according to the plans of the architect Rudolf Ortner . The western rear of the stadium, on which an embankment heaped up from mountains of rubble surrounded the area, also formed the border between the Soviet and French occupation zones, and later also the national border.

The expansion of the sports park was part of the National Construction work : construction brigades of the FDJ and voluntary workers led to construction Sundays through extensive cleanup, among other things, the removal of war debris included. On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the death of Friedrich Ludwig Jahn , the sports park was named Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn-Sportpark in 1952 . In 1986 and 1987 the Berlin magistrate had the stadium completely renovated.

Nordbahnhof 1877–1985

Location of the (old) north station, Berlin 1884

While the area between Schwedter Straße and Schönhauser Allee was used for physical exercises by the military and the population, the north station was built west of Schwedter Straße . This was the terminus of the Berliner Nordbahn (Berlin - Stralsund), a terminus that reached to the corner of Schwedter and Bernauer Strasse. Started by a private company, the station came into the hands of the state during the construction work and was opened on October 1, 1877, initially exclusively for freight traffic. Passenger traffic was handled via the Szczecin train station (today's Nordbahnhof ). From 1892 a small suburban passenger station was added to the north station at the level of Bernauer Strasse, which should relieve the Stettin station. This was only intended as a temporary measure and was just as unadorned and functional as the entire freight yard. The station only served this purpose until 1898.

A historic city map shows how the railway line, coming from the north, pushed in a straight line over the Ringbahn and Gleimstraße to Bernauer Straße. In 1950, when the Stettiner Bahnhof was renamed Nordbahnhof, the station was given the name Berlin Eberswalder Strasse . It was used as a freight transshipment point until the 1970s, when it was shut down by the Reichsbahn in 1985 .

Death strip 1961–1989

The station area was exactly on the border between the administrative districts of Wedding and Prenzlauer Berg, established in 1920 . While the Wedding district was assigned to the French Sector after 1945, Prenzlauer Berg came to the Soviet Sector. The closure of the inner-city border on August 13, 1961 ( construction of the Berlin Wall ) separated the station area, which was still in Weddinger area, from the Schwedter Straße, the actual sector border , and the embankment to the higher Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn-Sportpark . To the south of the former reception building, the border ran across the (now closed) intersection of Eberswalder / Oderberger / Schwedter / Bernauer Strasse, to turn west and continue on the south side of Bernauer Strasse. At the intersection mentioned above, one of the well-known viewing platforms was located in West Berlin, allowing a view over the Wall to East Berlin.

Due to the difference in height between the sports park and the former station area, the GDR border troops faced a difficult situation for over 20 years: the border strip was, so to speak, on an inclined plane on the steep embankment below the Jahn Stadium , while the level station area already belonged to West Berlin. Through an area swap in 1988, the magistrate acquired the eastern part of the station grounds; the sector boundary was moved 50 meters westwards over a length of around one kilometer. Around 300 linear meters of the former hinterland wall have been preserved from the border system (as of the end of 2014).

The beginning of the Mauerpark in 1990

Mauerpark

After the opening of the border and the reunification of Berlin (1989/1990), the wall strip on Schwedter Straße quickly served as a public green area. In the summer of 1990 there were still watchtowers of the border troops on the embankment, while the meadow next to it was already being used by the residents.

The about turn times resulting project of a wall parks , so a green ribbon on the former border strip across the reunified Berlin, soon won many followers among the population. After the Allianz Umweltstiftung promised an amount of 4.5 million marks (adjusted for purchasing power in today's currency: around 4 million euros) for the design of the new park, the Berlin Senate , which is now responsible for all of Berlin, decided on June 23, 1992, that in the then district The 7.1 hectare section of the former freight yard in Prenzlauer Berg is to be converted into  a park. The planning work was done by the Hamburg landscape architect Gustav Lange . The redesign that was carried out according to the plans ended with the opening of the park on November 9, 1994. The strip of land in what was then the Wedding district was initially not included, it belonged to the Federal Republic of Germany via the federal railroad assets . In 2001 ownership was transferred to the real estate company Vivico, which was founded to market the federal railroad assets . The area was used by tenants as a building material store and, since July 11, 2004, as a flea market . The eastern half of the former track field and the steep slope below the stadium belonged to the Mauerpark.

First park extension in 2005 and a new sports hall in the area

In 2005, a two-hectare section north of Gleimstrasse, located around the Moritzhof children's farm at the end of Copenhagener Strasse , was connected to Mauerpark. In July 2013, another two hectare area was added between the Gleimtunnel and the extended Lortzingstrasse. This street extension is designed exclusively as a footpath and now forms the connection between the Brunnenviertel and the Prenzlauer Berg district.

From the end of the 1990s, the Mauerpark advanced to become a much-used leisure facility. In summer in particular, it is a meeting place, especially for young people, and a popular place for boules players , football players , basketball players , jugglers and leisure musicians. The preserved former interior wall at the Jahnstadion is a practice area for graffiti artists . The Mauerpark is also visited at night in summer, but is almost completely unlit.

Every year on the evening of April 30th, celebrations for Walpurgis Night with campfires and artistic performances take place in Mauerpark . On the edge of this event took place in mid-2010s repeated violent riots that some people as a prelude to the Maikrawalle view.

At Falkplatz, bordering Jahnstadion to the north and Mauerpark to the east, a large sports hall, the Max-Schmeling-Halle , a venue for numerous events and, until September 2008, the home games of the Bundesliga basketball team ALBA Berlin , was built as part of the Berlin application for the 2000 Olympic Games .

The Mauerpark is divided by the Gleimtunnel

The listed Gleimtunnel , which was closed during the division of Berlin and runs through Gleimstrasse under railway bridges of the former Berlin Northern Railway, was reopened after the political change and since then has been one of four road connections between Gesundbrunnen and Prenzlauer Berg. It divides the Mauerpark into a north and a north South face.

The crossing of the railway bridges belonging to the Deutsche Bahn by the park visitors was blocked by the district office of Pankow until 2008 . The reason given by the Senate Department for Urban Development was a planned takeover of ownership and the clarification of the financial consequences as prerequisites for the implementation of a route via the Gleim tunnel.

Due to significant pressure from the Friends of Mauerpark e. V. an opening of the blocked path could be achieved. In 2008, a narrow, fenced-in strip that leads over the wide, overgrown former railway bridge, was released. Since then, visitors to the Mauerpark can once again reach both parts of the Mauerpark directly.

Second expansion 2013

Demonstration for the preservation of the entire Mauerpark, 2009

The financial resources of the Allianz Environmental Foundation were tied to the condition that a park of at least ten hectares be created by 2010. Otherwise the state of Berlin would have to repay the money. In principle, only the six hectare area belonging to the real estate company Vivico , which is used by commercial enterprises and was originally intended as the western part of the Mauerpark, would be considered for an extension . The area would have to be bought by the State of Berlin from Vivico. Since the financial situation of the country did not allow this, both parties agreed on a compromise: Vivico would receive a two-hectare area free of charge, Vivico would receive building rights on the other four hectares. To this end, in 2004 the zoning plan from 1994, which was valid until then and which designated the entire area as a park, should be changed accordingly. The planned residential buildings have a significantly higher eaves height than the surrounding development. This met with considerable protests from many residents who demanded the implementation of the original plans. To resolve this conflict, a moderation process was opened in April 2005, which was later canceled. Various citizens' initiatives from the area are still campaigning for the park to be completed according to the original plans and organized corresponding demonstrations (as of 2018).

Mauerpark in summer

After the differences of opinion between citizens' initiatives and the building council of the Mitte district, the urban development committee Mitte proposed in a resolution recommendation on January 27, 2010, as a compromise, that Vivico only build on the area north of the Gleimtunnel and at the southern end of the park. which was later decided. Whether the discussion for the development of the new area to the north of the park wall demolition of a half of the listed reacted Gleim tunnel, but it is unclear.

Citizens' workshop

In order to specify the further development of the 5.8 hectare park area provided in the B-Plan draft 1-64, Grün Berlin GmbH , a service company founded in 1980 by the State of Berlin for all tasks relating to open space design, set up the Mauerpark Citizens' Workshop . An urban development competition was held in a separate process for the design of the building plots.

The citizens 'workshop brings together members from Prenzlauer Berg and Gesundbrunnen who come from the respective citizens' associations and initiatives or who, as citizens, have a special interest in the further development of the Mauerpark. The citizens' committee was constituted on September 15, 2010 and, on the one hand, developed the guiding principle of Mauerpark: open space for encounters - cultural diversity for Berlin and, on the other hand, key points for the further completion of the Mauerpark. Four members of the citizens' workshop were able to take part in the urban planning competition as delegates. This ensured that the perimeter development provided for in the compromise approach, which would have been granted in return for the release of 5.8 hectares of open space, would remain park-friendly. However, in the opinion of the Bürgerwerkstatt, the architects' drafts were too massive, so that the delegates did not want to support this result. The common line of the parliamentary groups of the SPD and the Greens of the District Assembly (BVV) Mitte, to implement the compromise building law against open space in the development plan, had thus failed. The development plan procedure has been frozen since 2011.

The negotiated new parking area was designed by Grün Berlin GmbH for around 120,000 euros and released for use on July 24, 2013. In addition, Grün Berlin acquired the entire park area and took care of maintenance on the basis of a usage contract concluded in spring 2016.

Third park expansion from 2016

The Senate Department adopted the B-Plan process for the site in order to "slow down" a petition for citizens (Mitte district) requested by citizens' initiatives. After a decision by the House of Representatives, the project developer Klaus Groth received the building permit for a new residential area north of Gleimstrasse with 708 apartments; 120 apartments are among the buildings funded by the Senate. The contractor for the 150 million project is Gewobag .

The remaining plan area of ​​seven hectares between Bernauer and Gleimstraße was planned in 2014/2015 together with the Bürgerwerkstatt and the architect Gustav Lange, who planned the first parts of the Mauerpark after 1990. The Senate had entered an amount of 3.57 million euros in the 2014 budget. The Senate bought the extension site from the project developer Klaus Groth .

The following changes and additions are planned: The Sunday flea market is to be reduced in terms of area, but used as a movement area on weekdays. A new promenade, three platforms along the line of dissimilar things and a place at the crossroads to Lortzingstrasse are to be created. In order to leave the responsibilities for the parking area in one hand, the future Mauerpark area belongs completely to Pankow, which resulted in a slight shift of the district boundaries. [outdated]

In 2017, 25 years after the first phase of construction of the Mauerpark, the area of ​​the completed Mauerpark increased by almost seven hectares compared to 1992.

Culture

In the unlawful area of the post-reunification years, Mauerpark offered musicians, traders, bar owners and athletes the opportunity to use the park without a permit. These uses, which were tolerated over many years and which were made up exclusively of men, resulted in a kind of common law that was ultimately also supported by the Senate and the district council assemblies of Pankow and Mitte. The flea market operator, who also runs the flea market at the Tiergarten , even received part of the park that was paved for this purpose and is therefore no longer used as a recreational area. Almost every Sunday in summer, Joe Hatchiban from Dublin offers karaoke for everyone on the stage of the amphitheater with his orange-colored cargo bike, which has been converted into a karaoke station.

In addition to the crowd pullers, the flea market and karaoke , the other parts of the Mauerpark are often well attended on weekends and thousands of people celebrate, make music, take a walk or picnic. For musicians and those who believe they are, the park offers the opportunity to play with an amplifier without a permit. Residents who suffer from the noise are placed in the right corner. The chairman of the Friends of the Wall Park Association , Alexander Puell, defamed them as “concerned citizens”. On some Sundays in summer, up to 40,000 people visit the flea market and the park. Singers like Alice Phoebe Lou and bands like Beranger and 12 Volt perform regularly.

Long-distance cycle routes

Paved street in the course of Schwedter Strasse
Mauerpark in winter 2010

Two cycle paths run through the Mauerpark: the Berlin Wall Path and the Berlin – Usedom long-distance cycle path . Both lead along the Schwedter Straße through the Mauerpark and then onto the Schwedter Steg .

The asphalting of the previously paved Schwedter Straße in the area of ​​the Mauerpark, as planned by the Berlin Senate, met with resistance from some residents, who believe that this would disrupt the character of the park and make the history of the street as Postenstraße less visible. The residents argued that the long-distance cycle path should be run on a separate path. The route proposed by them, however, means a detour and a kinked route for long-distance cyclists. In addition, according to these plans, the long-distance cycle path is led between a playground and the entrance to the Moritzhof children's farm, which can put children playing there at risk. The ADFC Berlin argues that the partial asphalting of the Schwedter Straße is an important requirement for the long-distance cycle path to function as a tourist attraction.

In May 2005, prior to a vote in BVV Pankow, 1,000 signatures were collected for asphalting within three days. The BVV nevertheless decided, with the votes of the PDS and CDU, to keep the patch. The question of the asphalting or partial asphalting of the Schwedter Straße in the area of ​​the Mauerpark was also the topic of the Citizens' Workshop 2010/2011. The responsible senate administration has not yet made a final decision.

Planning a mixed water collecting sewer

As part of the 4th community workshop for the completion of the Mauerpark, representatives of Berliner Wasserbetriebe and the responsible administrative departments explained a large-scale, cross-district project to improve water quality. Since rainwater is fed to the sewage treatment plants together with the wastewater in Berlin's inner city area, during the summer months during heavy rain, wastewater overflows into the open rivers and lakes, which often results in the destruction of fish stocks and underwater flora.

For this reason, a collecting channel eight meters deep is planned for the renaturation of the Panke in the area of ​​the Mauerpark. Four variants were presented for the location of the storage tank:

  • Below the cobblestone street in Mauerpark as the shortest, straight variant,
  • along the fence on the western edge of the Mauerpark under the current Vivico site with two kinks,
  • on the western edge of the Mauerpark extension site with a longer course that also bends,
  • east of the stadium below the stadium entrance and below the Falkplatz.

The first variant is favored by Berliner Wasserbetriebe. After this was rejected by the Pankow district for a long time, an agreement between the district administration and the water company seemed to be pending in the spring of 2013. After that, the collecting sewer is to be built below the paved road in underground operation. In order not to impair visitor traffic, the work was originally only supposed to take place between the months of November and March. This commitment was withdrawn by the BWB and the district, the resulting breaks would be too expensive. The construction time in one piece is now given as a good two years, including six weeks for the drive, which is to be driven seven days a week, including at night.

In preparation for the construction work, trees, including the columnar poplar in the entrance area of ​​the Mauerpark, were felled in spring 2017.

The start of tunneling is planned for summer 2018. During this time there will be considerable restrictions in the area of ​​Eberswalder Straße, the Mauerpark entrance and the flea market. According to the BWB, the Mauerpark and the flea market should still be usable.

Problems

The Mauerpark is increasingly proving to be a problem with regard to waste disposal and use for barbecues. The Berlin city administration therefore made attempts in 2010 with eight underground plastic waste bins on the site because the containers were always full. However, these were not accepted by the park visitors and were used incorrectly due to the lack of labeling (among other things, visitors threw in glowing materials). In the 2013 summer season, metal rubbish bins were used instead, which are easier to use and can be clearly identified by a pictogram and an orange color as a garbage bin.

Because of the noise, residents of Gleimstrasse and Falkplatz joined forces and, together with the “Friends of the Wall Park”, achieved in 2009 that music was no longer allowed there. Since then, the musicians have been moving to the areas belonging to Berlin-Mitte. The residents of Mitte, who have since been defending themselves against the increasing noise, are insulted by the musicians in joint efforts with the residents of Pankow and moved close to AfD voters.

In 2018, at the insistence of individual residents from Mitte, musicians were reported for noise pollution and administrative offense proceedings were initiated against them. A community of Mauerpark visitors and residents from Pankow and musicians drew attention to the situation under the slogan "Music connects" and established rules for music in the Mauerpark with the Pankow District Council. Making music is forbidden in Pankow and is only allowed in the central part of the park. Contrary to immission control law , musicians are invited to play daily from Monday to Thursday from 11 a.m. to 7.30 p.m., on Saturdays and Sundays even until 8.30 p.m. in the area of ​​the park that belongs to Berlin-Mitte. The park rules also include that the sound should be directed towards the slope / stadium and not towards the residential area, which led to great amusement among the public.

The Mauerpark in the media

In the documentary Mauerpark , the director Dennis Karsten accompanied the park and its users throughout 2009. It shows a diverse portrait of the park. The film observes the different dimensions of the park. We hear from Dr. Motte and Wladimir Kaminer , but also Schraubmicha, Joe Hatchiban, Ginger Brown and the 12Volt bicycle band. What is striking is the almost complete absence of women, which is probably due to the fact that the law enforcement officers have been overwhelmed for decades, which has led to the de facto enforcement of the law of the fittest.

In the Berlin Tatort episode Mauerpark (director and screenplay: Heiko Schier ) from 2011, the crime scene of a murder is in Mauerpark.

The news program rbb24 reported on the overuse of the park in May 2019. On the day of the reunification in 2019, ZDF broadcast the 13-minute documentary Der Berliner Mauerpark by Stephanie Paersch and Stephan Merseburger in prime time . You meet Mauerpark fans from all over the world, experience the famous outdoor karaoke with the Irishman Hatchiban, go to the flea market, talk to street musicians and a family that is disturbed by the noise. They show the construction from 6 a.m., market manager Peter Hartwig, the new parking service from the district, the musicians Beranger and many dancers. Live and let live, a declaration of love to Berlin.
