Private tour in Berlin



Overview of Kreuzberg


The Kreuzberg district lies close to the east of the Spree river and the Landwehrkanal river flows from east to west. This place has a rather special history. Located in the capital city of Germany, these are originally small villages. Established in 1920 by the Greater Berlin Act, which provided for the consolidation of suburbs and the reorganization of Berlin into twenty districts.


The name "Kreuzberg" literally means "cross hill" - it has the highest elevation, 1821 ft above sea level. In addition, the hill received its name from the Prussian National Memorial of the year 19 to the War of Liberation, by Karl Friedrich Schinkel in the urban park Viktoriapark.


In the 1860s, Berlin's industry thrived, leading to an increasing need for "industrial tycoons" to expand and build more factories. And finally, it was decided to build factories in Kreuzberg at that time. They were built on streets that were adopted in the Hobrecht Plan (Berlin's binding land use plan of the 19th century).


And at this time, Berlin began to develop rapidly, as an economic and cultural center of Germany. So many people around the world, especially Turkish people, have chosen this place to develop their careers.


Therefore, Kreuzberg became an emigration district at the end of the 19th century, especially as a Jewish population lived here. The Jewish Museum Berlin is located in Kreuzberg, and many Stolpersteine (cement blocks with copper plates engraved with names and dates of death) can be seen on the streets of Kreuzberg as a memorial to the murdered Jews who lived in the area.


By the 20th century, Kreuzberg had grown to become the most populous district in Berlin - although geographically Kreuzberg was smaller than other districts. Kreuzberg is often an ideal place for family weekend getaways.
