    On the grounds of the disused Wannsee landfill, sand and gravel were mined to a depth of 6 m from World War II until 1960.
    Then between 1958 and 1979 a total of almost 29 million m³ of waste was deposited on a total area of approx. 52 ha. Including 15 million m³ of household and commercial waste, 13 million m³ of industrial waste and approx. 410,000 m³ of liquid hazardous waste. By the end of 1983 these were covered with approx. 4 million m³ of soil and coarse rubble and then reforested. The total volume of the landfill reached approx. 12 million m³ in 1984 through compaction and rises up to 40m above the surrounding area.
    The landfill gas is collected and was initially converted into electricity and heat in a combined heat and power plant using a technology that is unique in Europe and is now an advanced technology. Since 2000, the landfill gas has only been used thermally in order to provide heat for the nearby Helmholtz Center Berlin for materials and energy together with natural gas.
