location

Due to the administrative reform on January 1, 2001, the old district of Wedding was dissolved. The districts of Wedding and Gesundbrunnen emerged from it . The spatial hierarchy does not follow this demarcation, but runs along socially grown structures. To the west lies the Parkviertel district with the Rehberge park , the Schillerpark and the western Müllerstrasse , which roughly corresponds to the Brussels neighborhood . In the east there are large parts of Gesundbrunnen with the two regions Soldiner Straße ( Soldiner Kiez ) and Gesundbrunnen .

The borders run mainly along large connecting roads:

Reinickendorfer Strasse planning area

The name was chosen according to the centrally located Reinickendorfer Straße , which forms part of the Bundesstraße 96 here. The region forms the eastern center and has its borders in the north and east. In the south the border runs along Müllerstrasse, while in the west Schulstrasse with its renamed section Heinz-Galinski-Strasse surrounds the area. The street scene is determined by the course of the Panke , which flows along here and divides the area.

Important buildings are the Wedding District Court on Brunnenplatz (Berlin) , the large school complex on Antonstrasse (Wedding School), the urn cemetery on Richtstrasse with the Berlin-Wedding crematorium and the former commercial property of the Wittler bakery .

Leopoldplatz planning room

The planning room was named after Leopoldplatz in the south. The old Nazareth Church and the New Nazareth Church dominate it as buildings . Various care facilities and hospitals have been located on Reinickendorfer Strasse in the northeast since the end of the 19th century. The Jewish Hospital Berlin is in clinical operation. The Kaiser and Kaiserin Friedrich Children's Hospital , completed in 1890, was hardly damaged in World War II and was used as a children's hospital until 1995. From 1945 to 1963 it was called the  Wedding Municipal Children's Hospital , and from 1963 to 1995 it was called the  Rudolf Virchow Children's Hospital . After the end of use as a children's hospital, the Evangelical Geriatric Center Berlin is located here .

Facilities of the Kaiser Wilhelm and Augusta Foundation , the Mayor Reuter Foundation and other providers are also located here . Another city square is Nauener Platz in the planning area, with the adjoining House of Youth . In the north is the Osram-Höfe building ensemble , a former industrial complex. The name was derived from the Osram company , which produced lamps there until 1988. Based on this complex, the area is also called Osram-Kiez . This leads to an overlap in the allocation with the Leopoldkiez , which also includes some quarters south of Schulstrasse. The Turiner Straße cemetery is located in the middle of the residential area . It was laid out in 1866 as the Müllerstraße garrison cemetery. The main entrance was originally located at this. In 1950, areas of the forecourt that were not used for burials were sold and closed in perimeter block development. The entrance was moved to Turiner Strasse.
