The Thiel Park is in the Berlin district of Dahlem the district of Steglitz-Zehlendorf location protected green area . The park is named after Hugo Thiel (1839-1918), a German politician who was chairman of the commission for the division of the Dahlem domain . Together with the Triestpark adjoining it to the southeast , the Thielpark is protected as a garden monument.
History and design
The park area was created as a glacial channel at the end of the last ice age . Water collected in the depressions and formed smaller bodies of water. At the end of the 19th century, Berlin recorded a significant increase in population. Around 1901 the Prussian Landtag began to systematically convert the large arable, pasture and forest areas adjacent to the city into building land. To this end, they set up a distribution commission headed by Thiel, who worked as a ministerial director in the Prussian Ministry of Agriculture. He realized that the park was difficult to market due to its hilly structure with partly steep slopes and valleys. When creating the surrounding villa plots, he therefore designated the area as a park.
There are a total of four ponds in the park : the reed pond , the Thielpark pond and two other unnamed bodies of water. In the 21st century, the park is considered to be "one of the busiest parks in Berlin-Zehlendorf". Jan Schulz-Ojala from the newspaper Der Tagesspiegel described the park as a “filigree green fiber” in one of his articles.
It is cut through by underground line 3 . The Jesus Christ Church in Dahlem borders directly on Thielpark .
In the Schwarzer Grund there is a large boulder, the so-called Thielstein, which has been designated a natural monument by the city of Berlin.
