history

Memorial at the former Jewish cemetery

The forest settlement was never an independent municipality. It developed from an allotment garden settlement that nature-loving Berliners founded there in the 1820s. In the late 1870s there were only a few permanent establishments there apart from the popular “Am Weinberg” restaurant. That changed when the area was declared a building area a decade later. Many former allotment gardeners took advantage of the situation and built permanent houses instead of their arbors .
As early as 1819, a Jewish cemetery was built on the small hill that was presumably once used as a vineyard and gave its name to the former restaurant “Am Weinberg” located nearby. The cemetery and all gravestones were destroyed during the Nazi era . Today, a figurative representation by Ingo Wellmann from 1988 (sculpture of a kneeling man), who replaced the memorial erected in 1950 with a sculpture, reminds us of that place in Nauen's history.
In 1904 the forester's house for the head forester and his family was built in the Nauen city forest, which is now used as a studio and artist's workshop and residence.
In 1913 the city of Nauen acquired the Stolpshof property on the edge of the city forest. Today it is the home of the training center of the Nauen youth development organization (JAW). Previously it was used by the LPG Nauen, in the 1970s as a stud . At the old sheep farm there was an agricultural airfield during the GDR era. The attempt to continue using it for civil aviation for sightseeing flights after the fall of the Wall was given up in 2003 and air traffic was discontinued, among other things, due to ongoing civil protests.
