Wasserwerk Johannisthal, Nature reserve in Treptow-Köpenick, Germany.
The protected area spans 35 hectares, bordered by Königsheideweg, Lindental gardens, Federal Motorway 113, Springbornstraße, and Koschatweg in Berlin.
The waterworks started operations in 1901 with two pumping stations, later expanding to 80 wells by 1970s to serve 300,000 residents.
This protected site represents Berlin's transformation from industrial water management to environmental conservation, integrating natural spaces within urban boundaries.
The area maintains specific groundwater levels while conducting remediation efforts for historical contamination from arsenic, cyanide, and chlorinated hydrocarbons.
Despite ceasing water extraction operations in 2001, the site continues its environmental mission through rehabilitation measures and species management protocols.
