Britz Palace
Historical landmark
5 kms
The Britz Castle is also referred to as the ‘pearl of the district’ and got its shape around 1880 from its former owner. The facade was refurbished in a neo-renaissance style and a tower was added at the same time. The park behind the property was reconstructed in the style of the turn of the centuries.
Today a museum can be found within the castle. In different rooms one can find a permanent exhibition on the subject of interior design during the German ‘Gründerzeit’. Additionally, there are different special exhibits, as well as concerts and readings of different artists organized frequently on an open-air stage. One can also find an elegant hotel as well as a great restaurant on the compound. The sun terrace invites guests to linger and enjoy a varied menu.

UNESCO world heritage site “Hufeisensiedlung“
Historical landmark
4 kms
The Berlin Modernism Housing Estates are architectural properties from the 20s and 30s. The small streets with the alteration of multi colored facades, the old cherry trees and its informal character contribute to an 'island of tranquility' feel in the middle of Berlin’s big city life.
The area is still a popular residential district. Residents enjoy the flair of the 30s, while the young and the old, established and new residents conglomerate to a new diversified neighborhood.
Bruno Taut, Martin Wagner and Walter Gropius were among the leading architects of these projects which exercised considerable influence on the development of housing around the world.

Tempelhof Field
Historical landmark
3 kms
Located on the grounds of the former Tempelhof airport, Tempelhof Field is larger than New York's Central Park with over 300 hectares for bike riding, skating, kite flying, urban gardening, strolling or just doing your own thing. It is hard to believe that up until a few years ago, air commuters could fly right from here. Tempelhof played a key role after World War II during the Berlin blockade, when supply planes landed at the site in 90-second intervals. You can read about this and other notable events in the airport's history on various plaques on the field.

Park

Located at the foot of a prominent national monument, there is an artificial waterfall which rushes down to the foot of the mountain at the confluence of Großbeerenstraße and Kreuzbergstraße. In Berlin vernacular, the park is usually referred to as being Kreuzberg. The history of the Viktoriapark began in 1821. On the elevated grounds of what had previously been called "Tempelhof Berg" or "Runder Weinberg,” Karl Friedrich Schinkel built a national monument commemorating the battles of the War of Liberation. At the foot of this monument, a simple park was created.
