The Schwarzwaldstraße in Berlin district Blankenburg extends from the Ilsenburg- to Triftstraße. The street is located north of Alt-Blankenburg in the immediate vicinity of the Karower Kreuz .

Today's Black Forest Road

The Schwarzwaldstraße has been the only Black Forest street in Berlin that still exists since around 1920. In the surrounding communities, which were incorporated when Greater Berlin was formed in 1920, further Black Forest roads are to be occupied. What they have in common is that the names have been given since the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, a time when the rural way of life of the Black Forest people and their Black Forest clocks enjoyed widespread glorification . However, until 1920 there was no road directly in Berlin that referred to the Black Forest .

Former Black Forest roads

Berlin-Friedenau

A Black Forest road had been located in today's Friedenau district since 1895 . The street name was given up in 1909 after the south-west parade was laid out there between 1906 and 1908 .

Berlin-Wilmersdorf

From October 24, 1908, the southern part of what was then Heidelberger Strasse south of Rüdesheimer Platz in Wilmersdorf was renamed Schwarzwaldstrasse until its end at the confluence with Kreuznacher Strasse . The street has been named Geisenheimer Strasse since 1912, after the town of Geisenheim in the state of Hesse . The street name corresponds to the naming of this area, which as the Rheingauviertel has further streets named after places in the Rheingau (Hessen) Rheingau .
