Die Wuhle (green brands) in Ahrensfelde and Berlin

The Wuhle is a small river in Brandenburg and Berlin . Like the Panke , it is a right tributary of the Spree . It rises on the base moraine plateau of the Barnim near Ahrensfelde , near the city limits of Berlin. In its course it largely follows a glacial channel .

The Wuhle has a length of around 15.5 kilometers, of which it runs 15.2 kilometers in the city of Berlin. Its catchment area is approximately 144 km², of which 56.8 km² is within the city limits of Berlin.

geography

Headwaters

The Wuhle rises at an altitude of about 61  m above sea level. NN on the plateau of Barnim in a small forest area between the Ahrensfeld districts of Neu Lindenberg and Ahrensfelde. The source lies northeast of the Ostkirchhof Ahrensfelde , 150 meters east of the Neuer Schwanebecker Weg and 1,800 meters north of the Ahrensfelde Friedhof train station . Today, the Wuhlegraben is supplied with additional water from the north from a rainwater retention basin , which was created in front of the actual source in the northernmost part of the forest for the area of ​​the Federal Police (formerly: Federal Border Guard ) on the Federal Border Guard avenue.

The southern course of the Wuhle trench from the source crosses the large, partially forest-like cemetery area of ​​the Ostkirchhof and takes in two other small tributaries. One of these trenches comes from the direction of the western fairytale forest , the other from the east from the direction of the Berlin – Werneuchen railway line ( Wriezener Bahn ). After passing the so-called “main axis” of the cemetery to the west, a straight avenue that leads to the chapel of the churchyard, the Wuhle passes under pipes for about 200 meters, the entrance building of the east churchyard Ahrensfelde and the railway line. From the Bahnstraße east of the Ahrensfelde-Friedhof station, the course of the river is open again.

course

The Wuhle now flows in a south-easterly direction through the residential area “Ahrensfelder Dreieck”, which has existed since the 1990s and is characterized by single-family and row houses. Here two streets were named after the course of the river, Wuhlesteg and Am Wuhlegrund , both of which border the Wuhle. Due to the rain drainage of the settlement into the river, it already carries significantly more water. After crossing under Dorfstrasse, Bundesstrasse 158 , east of the Ahrensfeld Church, south of the old village, the Wuhlgraben, coming from the northeast, joins the Wuhle. This rises in the area of ​​the Ahrensfeld district of Blumberg west of Mehrower Straße, about halfway between Blumberg and Mehrow .

The Wuhle before the confluence of the Neue Wuhle

About 200 meters below the mouth of the Wuhlgraben, the Wuhle reaches the urban area of ​​Berlin. From the border path of the Ahrensfeld district of Eiche to Landsberger Allee or Landsberger Chaussee, it forms the state border between Berlin and Brandenburg, here between Marzahn in the Marzahn-Hellersdorf district in the west and the eastern Eiche, the southernmost district of Ahrensfelde . In Eiche, several allotment gardens accompany the course of the river up to Landsberger Chaussee, interrupted by two further smaller ditches coming from the east.

Neue Wuhle in front of the apartment blocks of Marzahn-Nord

On the Berlin side is the Wuhletal landscape park , which encompasses the Ahrensfeld mountains created by artificial embankments . The confluence of the Wuhle with the Neue Wuhle , an extension of the Seelgraben coming from the west from Falkenberg, is important for the course of the river . The Neue Wuhle was built at the end of the 1980s as a sewage treatment plant drain for the Falkenberg sewage treatment plant, which was shut down in 2003 due to insufficient sewage efficiency. The union of the two rivers takes place shortly before Landsberger Allee at an altitude of about 48  m above sea level. NN , before the river under the Nikolai-Bersarin-Bridge crosses the street mentioned and from now on flows completely on Berlin area to the mouth.

The Wuhle, which now flows entirely in the Berlin district of Marzahn-Hellersdorf, remains a border river here too. It separates the districts of Hellersdorf and Kaulsdorf in the east from Marzahn and Biesdorf in the west. The urban settlements east of the river almost come close to it, while in the west an extensive green corridor underlines the natural course of the Wuhle. South of Eisenacher Strasse on the western bank are the Gardens of the World with various different garden shapes . To the south of the park borders the 102  m above sea level. NN high Kienberg . On its southern flank is the Wuhleteich , to which an arm of water flows from the Chinese Garden of the Reclaimed Moon in the west of the Gardens of the World . The park also forms the border between Marzahn in the north and Biesdorf in the south. The Jelena Šantić Peace Park is located on the eastern side of the Wuhle in the area of ​​Hellersdorf .

Behind the Wuhleteich, interrupted by the bridge on Cecilienstraße, an approximately 150-meter-wide alluvial forest stretches west along the Wuhle to Altentreptower Straße at the Wuhletal S and U-Bahn station . On the east side, in the Hellersdorf district, there is an allotment garden (KGA "Teterower Ring"), a large housing estate (Kummerower Ring), sports fields and three clarification ponds. On the eastern side of the Wuhle, Altentreptower Straße forms the border between the districts of Hellersdorf and Kaulsdorf to the south. The course of the river now describes a small curve in an easterly direction due to the Biesdorfer Höhe . On the 82  m above sea level. NN high elevation has been in the past waste deposited. Then they turned it into a park . The entire section west of the Wuhle from Kienberg to Biesdorfer Höhe is also known as the Wuhletal Landscape Park .

Wuhlebecken

After crossing under the federal highways B 1 / B 5 leading on the same route , to the west as Alt-Biesdorf , to the east Alt-Kaulsdorf , the Wuhle flows first to the west and then, pivoting to the south, back to its old flow axis. After passing the “New Life” allotment garden, she reaches the single-family housing estates of Kaulsdorf and Biesdorf. Behind the bridge of Heesestrasse / Heerstrasse, the course of the river briefly widens into a pond-like Wuhle bubble . Another 800 meters south it reaches the Wuhle basin (also called Wuhlesee ), a 110-meter-wide and 520-meter-long artificially created water basin that was used to lower the groundwater and remove sludge from the Wuhle. Since the late 1980s, the river has been routed in a tributary west around the lake. There is a connection to the Wuhle through two weirs in the north and south.

Behind the pedestrian bridge on Bismarcksfelder Strasse, the Wuhle ends as a border river between Kaulsdorf-Süd and Biesdorf-Süd and crosses completely into the Köpenick area in the Treptow-Köpenick district . At Hoppendorfer Straße, it briefly touches the Wuhlheide on the western bank of the river, which is named after it , before it swings from its previous southern orientation to the southeast at the level of the "Technologiezentrum Innovationspark Wuhlheide", which is also to the west. On the north-east side of the river, the previous single-family housing estates on D 18 merge into apartment blocks from the 1920s. About 300 meters west of the Berlin-Köpenick S-Bahn station, the Wuhle flows through the bridges of the Am Bahndamm street and the embankment of the Lower Silesian-Märkische Railway , also known as the Frankfurt Railway. Behind the railway bridge, the course of the river changes again, this time towards the southwest.

Wuhles mouth into the Spree in Berlin-Köpenick

While allotment gardens are located on the east and south-east banks of the Wuhle in addition to apartment blocks, extensive sports facilities begin on the north-west side from the Schinderbrücke on Hämmerlingstrasse, which extend to the mouth of the river. They belong to the Köpenicker football club 1. FC Union Berlin , whose stadium at An der Alten Försterei is right next to the Wuhle. The Wuhle now passes the pyramid bridge, the last bridge before the river mouth. Lindenstrasse, a main thoroughfare in Köpenick, connects Alt-Köpenick with Oberschöneweide . From this bridge, the Wuhlelauf divides the last 100 meters to the Spree between the districts of Köpenick in the southeast and Oberschöneweide in the northwest. After around 16.5 kilometers, the Wuhle flows into the Spree across from Spindlersfeld .

Problems

In the summer months the Wuhle repeatedly has problems with its own water balance . In the 2010s, these problems continued to worsen. In some sections, especially between the spring and the Wuhle basin, many areas are almost completely dry. In addition to the drought and the closure of the sewage treatment plant in Falkenberg, the construction work for the IGA 2017 may also have negative effects on the Wuhle.

Others

District coat of arms Marzahn-Hellersdorf

The coat of arms of the Berlin district of Marzahn-Hellersdorf , which was newly formed in 2001, contains the Wuhle symbolically as a silver wave bar. For a while, Wuhletal was discussed as a name for the formed large district.
