Volkspark Prenzlauer Berg

Volkspark Prenzlauer Berg is a large green space in eastern Pankow with multiple walking paths, play areas, and trees throughout its grounds. The space offers various zones for walking, playing, and resting, with different terrain types and landscape features.

The site was originally agricultural land and allotments until the 1920s when it began to change. After World War II it became a storage area, before finally being converted into a park in the late 1960s.

The park serves as a gathering place where families spend afternoons, children play on equipment, and people of all ages move through the green space during their daily routines. Nature and recreation form part of how the neighborhood connects with the outdoors.

The park grounds are easy to enter and offer many different paths for moving around and exploring various areas. In the colder months, the elevated terrain is particularly suited for activities like sledding and other winter pastimes.

For several years now, the grounds have hosted a vineyard where grape varieties are grown for wine production. This agricultural activity shows that the urban space continues to support farming practices.
