The Salvador Allende street is a 1.5 kilometer road in the Berlin district of Treptow-Koepenick , the district of Koepenick , east of the old town. The street has had its name since 1973, when the first large new residential area in what was then the Köpenick district was ready for occupancy.

History and numbering

The street begins in the south at Müggelheimer Damm . On the east side there is initially the grounds of the Köpenick hospital , then the street touches a residential area that was built on the Kämmereiheide in the 1920s as a small house settlement and was expanded in the 1950s. The new development area Allende-Viertel I is on the west side . About 150 meters north of the Azalea Road, the road becomes four lanes with a green median. Another new district with an access ring begins here on the east side (house numbers 76-76v). Behind the Salvador-Allende Bridge over the Spree there is access to the westernmost tip of Friedrichshagen ('Hirschgarten' colony) on the east side (house numbers 82-102). The Salvador-Allende-Straße ends in the north at Fürstenwalder Damm.

The parcels or houses are numbered from south to north according to the Berlin system, odd on the left, even on the right. It runs from 1 to 117. On the east side, some street sections for the development of the residential area are also called Salvador-Allende-Straße.

History of the road

Marked in yellow: The route of Achenbachstrasse around 1920; the hospital (south-east) and the electricity works (north-east) are clearly visible

When the road system was laid out according to a development plan around 1910, this traffic route probably had a number, which has not been passed down. It ran from south to north between Müggelheimer Chaussee (today: Müggelheimer Damm) and the Spree and comprised eleven parcels around 1922. The bridge over the Spree did not exist at that time, it was only built at the end of the 1970s and inaugurated in April 1981.

The street was named in 1914 "on the occasion of the construction of the district hospital in Cöpenick" after Adolf von Achenbach , the then district administrator of the Teltow district. The name was given during his lifetime, because the city of Cöpenick wanted to honor his commitment.

In 1931, the course of Achenbachstrasse between the Strandschloßweg – Müggelheimer Chaussee (south) and the Spree (north) is indicated in the Berlin address book. The numbering was completely changed, it now ranged from 1 to 51 (“left side”) and 2–68 (“right side”; the numbers 10–66 remained free). The hospital was given house numbers 2-8, which are still valid today. A previously unnamed path that branched off from the street was now officially called Weg nach Neu-Heringsdorf and later street 299, which was renamed Azaleenstraße after 1990 ; it led to the large excursion restaurant "Neu-Heringsdorf" on the south bank of the Spree, on this area there are now sports centers.

Ceremonial renaming of two streets in the Allende district; 1973

On October 10, 1973, Achenbachstrasse was given a new name after the previously assassinated Chilean President Salvador Allende . On November 3rd of the same year a public rally took place on the occasion of the naming and the naming of the Pablo-Neruda-Strasse. The renaming was closely related to the newly built residential area on the Amtsfeld in Köpenick, which was now called Salvador-Allende-Viertel  I after the president and the main access road . At the beginning of the 1980s, further multi-storey prefabricated buildings were built east of Salvador-Allende-Straße behind the hospital grounds on what used to be wooded areas , which were named Allende-Viertel II .

Remarkable buildings and facilities with their history

- chronological -
Köpenick Hospital, main wing, around 2008
  • 1908: Between Müggelschlößchenweg and Spree (no number) at the initiative of Hugo Schuessler the electricity and sewage treatment plant city Cöpenick built. In 1932 it was given the address Achenbachstrasse 68. From 1937 the electricity and sewage works and the municipal electricity works in Berlin had the numbers 44–68. Both plants must have been closed in the 1980s, because there are currently (as of 2015) some administrative areas of the Treptow-Köpenick district (Ring Salvador-Allende-Straße 76-80) on the site.
  • 1914: District Hospital Cöpenick ; Achenbachstrasse (initially without a house number), from around 1930 2–8, built in 1912/1913 according to plans by the city planning officer Hugo Kinzer . The main hospital building, along with the farm buildings, the disinfection and morgue, a director's villa on the site and later additions are under monument protection. At the time of construction there was only a small wooded area ("forest") on the other side of the street, since 1926 Volkspark Köpenick based on plans by Erwin Barth . The hospital has been part of the DRK Clinics Berlin since the 1990s and operates as the DRK Clinic Köpenick .
  • 1921/1922: Number 8 was the “Ruilos- Knoblauch- Verwertungsgesellschaft mbH”, which was founded in 1921 by the chemist Georg Eppenstein as a business enterprise. In 1933 the company came under the protection of the then Berlin University . From 1935 onwards, M. Eppenstein, Georg Eppenstein's widow, was named as the owner of the house at Achenbachstrasse 33/35, who had moved her residence to Berlin-Charlottenburg (Schlueterstrasse 49) and from there continued to manage the company. The combined residential and factory building was demolished in 1971 in connection with the construction of the Allende district.
  • Before 1922: The city of Cöpenick ran a poor house at number 3 .
  • 1925: Number 9 is the "House of New Bavaria". The Knoblauch-Verwertungsgesellschaft and Haus Neu-Bayern can be found in the address book from 1932 under the numbers 33/35.
  • Before 1932: A park is now given as numbers 1-7, in 1935 only numbers 1-5 belong to the park, and the Köpenick district office is listed as the owner of plot 7. In the following year, Dr. Reinhold Hinz, medical director. The district of Köpenick probably had the head of the hospital build a villa here, which was used as the hospital's children's ward from the 1950s until the political change .
  • Before 1937: House number 42, now occupied for the first time, lists eight names and indicates that the city of Berlin is the owner. This was obviously a larger rental home.
  • Before 1939: The sports field "Eiche" between Wendenschloßstraße and Spree is mentioned for the first time as the "Sports Home of Friedrich Wilhelm Life Insurance AG" with Achenbachstraße 65/67. Today (2015) it is the venue of TSV Eiche Köpenick .
  • On the east side of the street (parcel numbers 52-74) in the interior, the allotment garden (colony) "Zum Steinarten" was created in the 20th century . It lies between the official moat (southern boundary) and a sports area with an air dome.
  • A little further south is the KGA allotment garden 'Salvador-Allende-Straße 42'.
  • Originally, a building (Achenbachstrasse without a number) directly on the banks of the Spree served as the official residence of a fishery supervisor (called “Pritstabel”). When it was incorporated into Berlin in 1920, it became the "Koepenick Fish Master's Office" in the Greater Berlin Fisheries Office . The house last housed a branch of the Berlin Fisheries Office. It was given up and closed as an office in 2004. Its tasks were the mediation of disputes between fishermen and the "biological and chemical fisheries supervision". In its place is today (as of 2015) the "Café Bistro Evelin" on the Müggelspreepromenade, which probably uses the former fishing building.
  • Around 1980: The infrastructure of the northeast section of the road was upgraded after the Spreebrücke was completed . Here (Salvador-Allende-Straße 88/90), with direct access to the north bank of the Spree at the mouth of the Neuenhagener Mühlenfließ , the water and leisure sports club Blau-Gelb Köpenick e. V. settled.
  • After 1990: A modern four-storey building (number 80 / 80a) was erected in the vicinity of this historical building, in which the Köpenick child and youth health service as well as the road traffic authority and the district regulatory and trade supervisory office are housed.
Stumbling block for Georg Eppenstein
  • June 21, 2004: A stumbling block was laid in front of Salvador-Allende-Strasse 43/45 . It is reminiscent of the Jewish chemist Georg Eppenstein, who lived in this house, first Achenbachstrasse 8, later renumbered to Achenbachstrasse 33/35, and was the managing director of the Knoblauch-Verwertungsgesellschaft. He died in 1933 as a victim of the Köpenick Blood Week .
    The Knoblauch-Verwertungsgesellschaft existed since 1921. It was still listed in the Berlin address book in 1943. According to the extract from the commercial register of the Charlottenburg district court , it was continued after the war.
  • After the year 2000, a hardware store, a car dealership, the “Integrations- Kita 'Käptn Browser'”, grocery discounter, doctors and lawyers, a few craftsmen and traders all settled down along this street .
  • At number Salvador-Allende-Straße 91 there was the Stephanus senior center “Müggelspree” until 2013 , supported by the St. Elisabeth-Diakonie, which moved to a new building on Straße Am Berg in 2013 (since 2014: Stephanus Wohnen und Care gGmbH). The building called "Salvador-Allende-Haus" with the address Salvador-Allende-Straße 89-91 has been used as a refugee home for around 320 residents since November 2013 and closed in July 2017 due to structural defects.
