Kanonenplatz is located below the Greenwich Promenade. There are two cast-iron cannons from the 18th century, which the Scot William Carron of Falkirk made. They used to serve as British coastal defenses. The district received the two-ton cannons as a gift from their sister city Greenwich in April 1983. From Kanonenplatz you have a stunning view over Lake Tegel and its islands.
