    Beautiful place, roundabout in the direct extension of the Prague square on bicycle street Prinzregentenstr

      Pretty little place with numerous restaurants in the area.

        Five places are marked for Friedenau on the site plan from 1872. Three of them are named a little later: Friedrich-Wilhelm-Platz, Hamburger Platz (Stubenrauchstraße cemetery) and Berliner Platz (Perelsplatz). It cannot be clearly determined at what point in time Schmargendorfer Platz (Schillerplatz) and its counterpart, Wilmersdorfer Platz, received their names. What both have in common, however, is that the streets leading to them, here Wiesbadenerstrasse and Stubenrauchstrasse, there Handjerystrasse and Schmargendorferstrasse, were led to a crossroads that was designed into a roundel with quarter-circle areas. The only thing that remains from the time it was built is the roundel from Wilmersdorfer Platz, which was renamed Renée-Sintenis-Platz on April 1, 1967.



        What is astonishing is that Friedenauer cannot do anything with either Renée-Sintenis-Platz or the sculptor Renée Sintenis (1888-1965). It should therefore be remembered that the first Berlin International Film Festival opened in 1951 in the Titania Palace, and at the end the Swiss director Leopold Lindtberg accepted the first Golden Bear for his film The Four in the Jeep.



        Renée Sintenis had this bronze sculpture made in Hermann Noack's foundry in 1932 under the title Young Bear. In 1956 she received the order to redesign it from the Federal Commissioner for the Promotion of Berlin's Economy. This has since been cast by Noack and presented as the Grand Prize at the end of the film festival. In 1957, a life-sized Berlin bear was added to greet transit travelers at the Dreilinden Checkpoint Bravo border crossing.
