Pankow, Administrative borough in northeastern Berlin, Germany

Pankow extends across thirteen distinct localities, including Prenzlauer Berg and Weißensee, making it Berlin's most populous district with 424,000 residents.

After World War II until 1960, Schönhausen Palace in Pankow housed numerous East German government officials, leading Western nations to refer to the area as East Germany's capital.

The Rykestrasse Synagogue in Prenzlauer Berg stands as Germany's largest synagogue, while the Weißensee Cemetery represents one of Europe's largest Jewish burial grounds.

The district connects to central Berlin through multiple transportation options, including several S-Bahn and U-Bahn lines, along with major roads B96a, B109, and B2.

The Museum in der Kulturbrauerei presents exhibitions about daily life during the German Democratic Republic period through original objects and documents.
