Nature-Park Schoeneberg South Terrain

image author: Grün Berlin GmbH

At the beginning of 1997 the Nature-Park Schöneberg South Terrain was created amidst a railway area that had been intensively used for years, with the financial support of Allianz Umweltstiftung.

In 1952 the German Reichsbahn stopped the railway traffic. The terrain, then lay idle for decades and a unique habitat for plant and animals developed between rusty signals and inactive points.

One doesn't only learn about the species-rich nature, but also about technical facilities like rail tracks, the listed water tower from the year 1927 and the railway building.
The gentle, artistically demanding development is considered as one of the park's special features. The altogether 4.2 kilometres long footpaths run where ever possible inside the old railway tracks.

In addition, the artist group 'ODIOUS' built a 600 metre long , 60 centimetres high steel footbridge, which guides visitors through the most beautiful sections of the area.
