Schöneberger Vorstadt

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Schöneberger Vorstadt (1861–1920)

The Schöneberger Vorstadt (also called Schöneberger Revier ) was a district of Wilhelmine Berlin . Their area originally belonged to the Feldmark von Schöneberg and was incorporated into Berlin in the course of the city's expansion in 1861.

The Schöneberger Vorstadt was bordered by the Landwehr Canal in the north, the Berlin-Potsdam Railway in the east, Schöneberg in the south and Charlottenburg in the west. The population increased from 16,994 in 1867 to 76,429 in 1910.

When Greater Berlin was formed in 1920, the Schöneberg suburb was initially completely added to the Tiergarten district. Since a change in the district boundaries in 1938, the area south of Kurfürstenstrasse has belonged again - as it did until 1861 - to Schöneberg.

In particular, the northern part of the Schöneberger Vorstadt was badly damaged in the Second World War. Your name has largely disappeared from everyday language today.
