Opened on July 10, 1877, as Reinickendorf station, it was renamed Schönholz in 1878 and became part of the electrified S-Bahn network on June 5, 1925, modernizing regional rail travel in northern Berlin.

Tracing the Berlin Wall: Remnants, Memorials, and Historical Sites to Explore

More than thirty years after its fall, the Berlin Wall still marks the city. Between the districts of Mitte, Prenzlauer Berg, and Friedrichshain, traces of concrete, watchtowers, and commemorative plaques tell the story of a people's and a capital's division. Entire segments have been preserved, others transformed into memorial sites or artworks, such as at the East Side Gallery. Along the old border lines, museums and parks bring these historical remnants back to life: Checkpoint Charlie, Bernauer Straße, the Topography of Terror, and Mauerpark. Each site holds a particular silence, reflecting a time that Berlin does not erase but faces squarely. These locations invite understanding, feeling, and sometimes just remembering.
