Weißensee (pronounced final pronunciation) is a district in the Pankow district of Berlin , arose from a street village east of the White Lake , founded in the 13th century , which was a manor from 1540 to 1880. From the incorporation into Greater Berlin in 1920 to the administrative reform in 2001, there was an independent district of Weißensee , in which various neighboring villages were incorporated.
Until its dissolution in 2000, the Weißensee district was the smallest district in Berlin in terms of population. On January 1, 2001, the three previously independent districts of Weißensee, Pankow and Prenzlauer Berg were merged to form the new administrative district of Pankow. The former district of Weißensee included the eponymous district of Weißensee as well as the districts of Heinersdorf , Blankenburg , Karow and the suburb of Malchow . When speaking of the Berlin district of Weißensee , the emphasis is correctly placed on the third syllable of the word and not the first.
history
13th Century
Weißensee was founded around 1230 as a street village on the medieval long-distance trade route from Berlin via Weißensee, Malchow and Bernau to Oderberg . It probably got its name from the White Lake ( Wittenze [1313], which at that time was also called Great Lake ), on the east bank of which the village was laid out by German settlers. Its indirect documentary first mention goes back to a secondary document about a pledge to Conradus von Widense (probably the first feudal mayor of the village) from the year 1242. Good fishing in the lake formed the Food and livelihoods of the first residents who cleared the surrounding woods, wheat horseshoe docked; Weissensee was never a fishing village, however. In the second half of the 14th century, the wooden village church, which must be assumed, was given a tower made of fieldstones that were not regularly square (characteristic of the late Gothic ). Catherine of Alexandria is the patron saint of this parish church. Weißensee's coat of arms refers to the wheel with which she was whacked and the sword with which she was quartered. Opposite the church there was a feudal school yard. The place expanded with its farms and cottages over a length of 500 meters on both sides of the village street.
14th Century
The village of Weißensee was first mentioned in a document from 1313, when the Heilig-Geist-Hospital in Berlin sold rights to four Hufen from Wittense ( Low German : Heller See ). In 1375, Emperor Charles IV. Weissensee , who resided in Prague , had it entered in the “ Landbuch der Mark Brandenburg ”, as did all the villages under his rule . The village had a total of 58 hooves, five of which were parish hooves, one church hoof, eight hooves of the Lehnschulzen and three hooves that were shared by nine Kossaten . A pitcher and fishing rights were not mentioned. In the 14th century, primarily Berlin citizens were the owners or tenants of the village. During this time, the west tower of the village church was made of irregular, late-Gothic field stone masonry .
15th to 18th century
In 1486, Elector Johann Cicero enfeoffed the Berlin garment tailor Thomas von Blankenfelde with a farm and made him the first lord of Weissensee.
Around 1540 a manor was set up in Weißensee, which was divided several times in the following years and often changed hands. During the Thirty Years War (1618-1648) Weissensee was occupied several times, so in 1636 and 1639 by the Swedes . After the end of the war, only three families lived in Weißensee. Only 30 years later did 143 people live here again.
In 1745, Carl Gottlob von Nüßler combined the separate estates and built a simple manor house on the south bank of the lake.
“Weißensee, a village 1 mile from Berlin, belonging to Mr. von Schenkendorf. There is a very beautiful garden there, to which the pleasant location on the large lake, from which the village takes its name, gives it even more charm [...] There is an avenue from Berlin to Malcho, a village 1½ miles from Berlin [ ...] "
19th century
In 1798, the Bernauer Chaussee ran far from Weißensee on the west side of the White Lake. From 1804 the construction of the Provinzial-Chaussee Berlin-Weißensee- Bernau began . However, the funds for this road only reached as far as Weißensee. The first economic impetus came with the distilling of potato schnapps using the distilling apparatus patented by Johann Pistorius in 1817.
“ Weissensee , Pfarrkirchdorf, ¼ m. Northeast of Berlin, in front of the New Königsthore , on the road to Bernau and Freienwalde, pleasantly located on the white lake, in the Niederbarnim district , has several country houses, a large brewery and distillery, 27 campfire sites and 185 residents . The church has the most beautiful tower of all the village churches near Berlin. "
20th century
Due to the financial commitment of the Hamburg entrepreneurial family Schön under the leadership of Gustav Adolf Schön , the rural community of Neu-Weißensee became the rural community of Neu-Weißensee in 1880 , which grew to over 30,000 inhabitants by 1900.
The union of the Barnim village Weißensee with the rural community Neu-Weißensee took place in 1905 to form the community Weißensee. Infrastructures such as a municipal cemetery, a hospital , a courthouse and schools were created for the joint application for city rights . In addition, a coat of arms was required for the desired city. Pastor Giertz chose St. Catherine from among the saints in his church , who was martyred with her wheel and sword. However, the responsible district administrator refused to grant city rights. In 1910 the municipality again sought city rights, but this was again rejected. After the First World War , Weißensee was combined with the surrounding communities of Hohenschönhausen , Malchow , Falkenberg and Wartenberg as well as the manor districts of Falkenberg, Malchow and Wartenberg to form the 18th administrative district of Greater Berlin . The town hall of the Weißensee district was a building at Amalienstraße 6.
From a administrative point of view, 21 local districts were created , divided according to streets. There were also four arbitration districts and 16 areas with poor and orphan councils .
From September 1943 to April 1945 there was a satellite camp of the Moringen concentration camp for boys in Weißensee .
After the end of the Second World War , Weißensee became part of the Soviet sector of Berlin, and a new administration began its work.
In 1952, the administrative unit received the official name of the Berlin-Weißensee district from the municipal authorities and the district council took over the official business . The seat of this district administration was a school building at Parkstrasse 82. In 1979 the southern area of Falkenberg was spun off and became part of the new Marzahn district . On January 1, 1986, the district of Weißensee had to give up these districts as an independent district after extensive new housing developments in Hohenschönhausen. For this, the districts were Blankenburg , Heiner village and Karow from the district of Pankow the municipality Weißensee assigned.
With German reunification in 1990, Weißensee came into the administration of reunified Berlin under the sovereignty of the Senate, along with all of the other East Berlin districts .
21st century
The district reform of 2001 abolished the district's independence, making Weissensee an equal part of District 3. Prenzlauer Berg, Weißensee and Pankow of Berlin . In 2004, the District Assembly decided on the shorter name of the Pankow district of Berlin . Weißensee has the district number 0302.
politics
mayor
Carl Woelck was the last mayor of the independent community of Weißensee, which came to Greater Berlin in February 1921 . As a city district , Weißensee was run by district mayors (BM) for 80 years from 1921 until the district merger, most recently from 1990 to 2001 by Gert Schilling ( SPD ). Since the district merger, the district mayor of the newly created Pankow district has also been responsible for the Weissensee district. The district mayor is elected by the district council. The district councilors are not elected in direct electoral districts, but in a district-wide list. The SPD, Left , CDU and FDP are represented in Weißensee with their own local associations.

coat of arms
The coat of arms of the Weißensee district with the wheel and sword of Saint Catherine shown on the right was in use until the confirmation of the coat of arms in the (greater) district of Pankow in the Weissensee district. The crown of the wall for the district of Weißensee was added to the coat of arms of the district of Weißensee after reunification. The straightening wheel from Weißensee was included in the new Pankow coat of arms as an eight-spoke red wheel. Since then it has symbolized economic and technical progress and mobility.
Industry
Between 1898 and 1906 the Ruthenberg factory was built in several stages. They were courtyards enclosed by low workshops and storage rooms that stretched between Langhansstrasse and Lehderstrasse in the square between Behaimstrasse and Roelckestrasse . They are rightly called the forerunners of the industrial parks rediscovered in the late 1990s . The only two higher, four-story buildings at Lehderstrasse 16-19 housed a gold molding factory.
In order to set up further industrial companies in the north of Berlin, the Barnim district, together with terrain development companies, had a railway laid, the Tegel – Friedrichsfelde industrial line . It connected Friedrichsfelde in the east with the Tegeler Hafen in the west and also touched Weissensee. After it opened in 1908, large companies such as the Ziehl-Abegg Elektrizitäts-Gesellschaft , which Emil Ziehl founded together with the Swedish investor Eduard Abegg in 1910, also settled in the municipality of Weißensee . After the German surrender in 1945, the factory facilities ( An der Industriebahn 12-18 ) were dismantled and taken to the Soviet Union by order of the Soviet Military Administration in Germany (SMAD) . The company was rebuilt from 1947 in West Germany ( Künzelsau ) by the brothers Günther and Heinz Ziehl.
Film industry and movie theater
_Filmstadt_Wei%C3%9Fensee.jpg)
In the period between 1913 and 1929 numerous films were produced in Weißenseer film studios, including Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari . Numerous production companies moved their headquarters to Weißensee. In 1929 the Delphi cinema opened on Gustav-Adolf-Straße . Around Antonplatz alone there were seven other cinemas, of which Toni alone remained. The director Michael Verhoeven bought it in 1992, had it renovated and expanded to include a smaller projection room (Tonino) . In the years 2010–2013, the Toni cinema was a Berlinale venue under the heading “Berlinale goes Kiez”. The ARD television series Weissensee , which has been broadcast since September 2010, was produced in Weissensee , among others.
traffic
On November 1, 1873, the first horse-drawn bus drove from Berlin's Alexanderplatz to Weißensee, but the company gave up after a short time because of the poor roads. In 1877 a horse tram line of the New Berlin Horse Railway was put into operation on this route.
The Ringbahn , which opened in 1872, received the Weißensee station in 1875 , today's Greifswalder Strasse S-Bahn station , which, however, is located in the Prenzlauer Berg district and one kilometer from the Weißensee border.
In 1901 the tram from Alexanderplatz to Weißensee was switched to electrical operation. The second line from the center via Prenzlauer Allee through Langhansstraße , which has existed since 1892, was also electrified. For the trotting track, a direct line from the ring station to the entrance of the track was set up and operated for several years. In 1911 a section was built through Schönstrasse .
In 1929 it was planned to connect the growing Weißensee to the underground network. At the Alexanderplatz underground station , tracks for the connection to the Weissensee line have already been laid on today's platforms of the U5 line. However, the plan came to a halt in 1935 at the Königstor in Friedrichshain with preparations for war. The end of the project saved the village church from destruction, as a station was to be built at this point.
The M4 MetroTram line has been running on large sections of this route from Hackescher Markt to Falkenberg and Zingster Strasse through Berliner Allee, every five minutes on weekdays, since the 21st century . This line is supplemented by the west-east connection of the MetroTram line M13 from the Rudolf Virchow Hospital in Wedding to the Warschauer Strasse station in Friedrichshain . Tram line 12 connects Weißensee with Prenzlauer Berg and Mitte , line 27 with Lichtenberg and Köpenick . Both tram lines start at Weißenseer Pasedagplatz .
Locations in Weißensee
Old town center / Berliner Allee
The course of the Berliner Allee has existed since the Middle Ages . Here a long-distance trade route ran from Berlin to the north. In the village of Weißensee it was Dorfstrasse . In 1880, with the formation of the rural community of Neu-Weißensee, the later southern section was called Königschaussee . The section in the village center of Weißensee was named Berliner Straße from 1880 . Both sections were merged in 1910 and renamed Berliner Allee . On June 13, 1953, the name was changed to Klement-Gottwald-Allee, after the Czechoslovak politician Klement Gottwald . After the political change , the original name Berliner Allee was restored on September 1, 1991. The central square is Antonplatz , which was restructured, built on and newly landscaped in the 2000s and 2010s. With the greening of the Grüner Hering open space and the upgrading of the residential area as part of the Weissensee-Süd redevelopment, the local situation, which in some cases still had war damage, was improved. This also included the adaptation of traffic, especially for tram traffic between Hohenschönhausen / Lichtenberg and city center / Wedding.
Composers Quarter
While many real estate speculators in Berlin were drawn to the west, in 1872 the Hamburg merchant Gustav Adolf Schön acquired the Weissensee estate for 700,000 thalers , which he parceled out and sold on in large areas. Ernst Gäbler and his society for medium-sized apartments built the French Quarter southeast of the Königschaussee . Due to the choice of name after battles and the results of the Franco-German War , the streets concerned were named after composers in an anti-militarist campaign in 1951 , which has since resulted in the name of the composer's quarter.
The district southeast of Berliner Allee is a complex of apartment buildings that extends as far as the Jewish cemetery . It has the character of a non-inner-city Wilhelminian - style development . Between the mid-1990s and the 2000s, the composers' quarter was a designated redevelopment area together with the neighboring quarter on Berliner Allee. The housing development and the living environment were improved with the use of EU funds.
Founding district
The areas to the northwest of Berliner Allee were built on along Langhansstrasse. As far as what was then Berlin's urban area, commercial buildings were set up by the municipality on Streustraße , offering the trades located there a unity of living and working.
Municipal district
At the beginning of the 20th century, extensive residential construction projects began, as many Berliners moved to the suburb of Weißensee. The area at Kreuzpfuhl was planned as the new town center and was given the name Munizipalviertel . The first thing that came into being around 1910 for the growing community was the community forum at Kreuzpfuhl, a representative, park-like center. In the 21st century, the Frei-Zeit-Haus e. V. found his home. The community forum and the residential buildings Woelckpromenade 2–7 have become a recognized urban development and architectural masterpiece by the architect Carl James Bühring . However, a new center did not develop.
Buschallee Taut settlement
With the incorporation into Greater Berlin in 1920, the need for living space increased again. From 1925 onwards, an ensemble of residential buildings was built in Buschallee , designed by Bruno Taut based on the principles of New Building .
Post-war buildings
In the 1950s, housing losses in Berlin had to be replaced. This construction boom soon reached the Weissensee suburb. In 1959 residential areas were built on Hamburger Platz , in 1967 on Else-Jahn-Straße and in 1975 the area at Falkenberger Straße Süd. In the 1990s, the new Karow Nord residential area with living space for around 20,000 people was built in the Karow district .
Culture and community
Churches
The district had four churches: the village church Weißensee (officially now a Protestant parish church ) east of the White Lake on Berliner Allee, the Evangelical Free Church ( Baptists ) at Friesickestraße 15, the Catholic St. Joseph Church ( Behaimstraße 33– 39). The Bethanienkirche still exists as a ruin on Mirbachplatz .
The village church is surrounded by a historic churchyard where, among other things, the last emperor's personal doctor is buried and a mausoleum for Johann Heinrich Leberecht Pistorius is located. The oldest stones in the church date from the 13th century. What this church of the first settlers on the White Lake looked like cannot be exactly reconstructed. Apparently it was a small, short nave . The oldest church book in Weißensee reports on an altar on which Saints John , Maria and Katharina were depicted. This first church building was probably dedicated to them. When more and more people settled in Weißensee in the middle of the 19th century, the church was expanded to the east in 1863. So there was still not enough space, so that the church building received a transept in 1899. The then master builder Theodor Prüfer had the church building in the east end in a polygonal apse . Nothing has been preserved from the original furnishings of the church. During the Thirty Years' War the church and the graves of the patron saints were looted, and in 1943 the church burned down completely in the Second World War . But shortly after the war it was rebuilt in 1948/1949 by the master builder Herbert Erbs . In the years 2005/2006 the church was extensively restored.
The Bethanienkirche on Mirbachplatz was inaugurated in 1902 by Kaiser Wilhelm II and Empress Auguste Viktoria . Since its almost complete destruction in World War II, the ruins of the church have stood in the center of Mirbachplatz.
Park at the White Lake
Instead of the manor house on the south bank of the lake, a castle-like building with a park was built in 1859 , which has been called the Park on the White Lake since the 1980s .
The castle was converted into an entertainment venue in 1874, the operators of which initially changed frequently. It was only Rudolf Sternecker who developed the company into the much-visited global establishment Schloss Weißensee with two dance halls, a slide, balloon rides, carousels, cube booths and various beer bars.
At the turn of the 20th century, the community acquired Weißensee Castle and the park with the lake and made them accessible to the public. An amusement park was built here before the First World War . The castle burned down in 1919 when its use as a barracks for the war garrison, which had existed since 1915, was ended and the soldiers burned the straw sacks they had used. What remains is the outdoor pool on the White Lake and the milk house.
The Planschwiese, which is located opposite the pier, was created in 1920 to create a swimming area for children. In 1928 the oldest inn, Zum green Baum , fell victim to a widening of the Berliner Allee.
Children's Hospital
A facility that has now almost been forgotten was the first communal infant and children's hospital in Prussia , which opened in 1911 and closed in 1997 and was located in the then extended Kniprodeallee. It had extensive farm buildings of its own, its own power station, and its own cowshed. Since its closure, the Senate has been looking for investors across Europe and finally found a buyer from Russia in 2005 . Since he cannot simply demolish the listed buildings, nothing has happened since then, that is, the building complex is visibly deteriorating. In the meantime, the state of Berlin tried to buy back the site. In 2018, a court ruled that the purchase agreement should be reversed.
Weißensee Racecourse
The Berlin Trotter Club built the first Berlin trotting track in 1877 on a site bordering Heinersdorf . The first races took place on June 16 and 17, 1878 and attracted more than 12,000 visitors to Weissensee. Later even a special tram line was run to the entrances of the racecourse. After several modifications and temporary closings, the races were moved to other racetracks in 1912. After the Second World War, new grandstands for 9,000 spectators were built on the racetrack with rubble in 1954/1955. In 1955, the grounds of the trotting track came to life as a cycling track . From 1962 riding and jumping tournaments were held on the site again.
At the end of the 1980s, the grounds of the racetrack were also used for major music events. The concert with the rock star Bruce Springsteen in July 1988 was noteworthy , and according to the organizers it was attended by around 160,000 fans, while in real terms it was probably between 200,000 and 300,000. It was also the biggest live performance that Springsteen ever performed. In August 1990, the Rolling Stones performed on the same site . After German reunification , the cycling track was torn down and replaced by smaller sports fields.
Flower festival
The first Weißensee Flower Festival was celebrated at the end of the summer in 1963 and opened by the district mayor. Since then it has been an integral part of the culture in Weißensee. In the meantime it was brought forward to the third weekend in June. Since the conversion of Weißensee into a district of Pankow, it has been part of the Pankow cultural plan as the third street festival and is now being opened by the Pankow mayor. In the beginning, the flower festival preferred to be a flower show, but has now developed into a cultural event and with its marquees and carousels has become a Weißensee tradition.
Milk house
One of the most famous cafés in Weißensee, the Milchhäuschen am Weißen See, opened in 1913 as a communal operation and as a supplement to the milk hall that has existed since 1911 directly on Berliner Allee. The park visitors were offered the range from the community's own cowshed in the infant and children's hospital (milk, yoghurt, quark). The pier was built in 1912 to cover the cooling system of the power station built in 1906. Hans Schellhorn created the two triton sculptures that guard the pier. The rainwater overflow is located below the pier, through which rainwater flows in as soon as the rainwater sewer system is overloaded.
In 1967 the milk house was demolished due to dilapidation and rebuilt in its current form.

Sports
The Weißenseer FC is a traditional football club , founded in 1900. At the stadium Buschallee next to the Lazy Lake is the Tennis Club Berlin-Weissensee e. V. This is also the home ground of the Rugby Club 03 Berlin , one of two Berlin rugby clubs in the 1st Rugby Bundesliga .
graveyards
In 1893 a community cemetery was set up on Roelckestrasse and also served as a burial place for the deceased in Berlin. The ensemble of administrators' house, celebration hall and portal was designed by Bühring . At the same time, the Protestant cemeteries of the Berlin Parochial, St. Georgen and Blessing Congregation were established west of Roelckestrasse.
With the influx of many Eastern European Jews to Berlin, the Jewish cemeteries in Berlin were no longer sufficient. Therefore, the Jewish community of Berlin acquired 42 hectares of land east of Weißensee in 1875 . In 1880 what is now the largest European Jewish cemetery was inaugurated. The entrance is at the end of Herbert-Baum-Straße .
The cemetery of the Israelite synagogue community of Adass Jisroel, built from 1873 onwards, is located on Wittlicher Strasse . From 1880 until the destruction of the community during the Nazi era , around 3000 funerals took place there. The last burial was for a large number of Torah scrolls that had been desecrated during the National Socialist era.
According to Jewish tradition, the burial place remains reserved until Judgment Day and new occupancies are not possible.
The Resurrection Cemetery on Indira-Gandhi-Strasse was created in 1899 when the poor cemetery in Berlin's Friedenstrasse had to be abandoned for the construction of the Resurrection Church . Instead, the parish was assigned a site in what was then the rural community of Weißensee as a new burial site.
