History

[edit]

The name of the former Reinickendorf village can be traced back to a peasant Reinhardt (Reineke in Low German), who settled here around 1230. The locality was first mentioned in a 1345 deed and acquired by the City of Berlin in 1397. The late 19th century saw a significant increase in population, when Reinickendorf received direct access to Berlin with the opening of the Nordbahn railway line to Neustrelitz in 1877.

Reinickendorf was incorporated into the City of Berlin by the 1920 Greater Berlin Act. In 1928, architect Otto Rudolf Salvisberg designed the Weiße Stadt (White City), part of the Berlin Modernist Housing Estates, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.[2]

During World War II, Reinickendorf was the location of a subcamp of the Sachsenhausen concentration camp for Hungarian Jewish and Polish women.[3]

Kriegsgräberstätte Reinickendorf is adjacent to the S-Bahn station and is accessed from Freitheitsweg or via a footpath on the south side of the station. In addition to one grave from 1919, inside the gate is a plot containing burials of military personnel and civilians from the Battle for Berlin and, in particular, 24th April 1945. Beyond this plot is another containing deaths occurring during the winter of 1945/46. To the west side are further immediate post-war civilian graves amounting to 500 burials. The total number of burials in the cemetery is around 2,370.
