Hiking

You wouldn't believe it, but the Schönholzer Heide is . It is a remnant of the formerly large, enclosed forest area (Schönhauser Fichten) as far as the Jungfernheide. After the Luna Park in Halensee was closed in 1936, a Traumland amusement park with many attractions was opened here. During the Second World War, there was a forced labor camp here, and bomb victims were buried here. Then it was supposed to become an amusement and recreation area again. But it failed because the entire area lay along the border and the nearby S-Bahn stations were in western territory.

The heath used to be part of a forest area that stretched all the way to the Jungfernheide: incredible.

There is also an inconspicuous war cemetery here.
