Brixplatz

Brixplatz is a public park with an artificial lake in its center, surrounded by walking paths, viewing platforms, and benches in the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district. The roughly 2-hectare space includes a children's play area and connecting pathways that pass through different sections of green space.

The site was initially called Sachsenplatz in 1909 and later redesigned by Erwin Barth between 1919 and 1922 after World War I delayed the original plans. The designer deliberately used the natural landform to create the park's layout.

The space contains different plant zones showing natural vegetation from the Brandenburg region, which visitors encounter while walking through.

The park is easy to navigate on foot, with pathways connecting different areas and passing by the lake. The varying elevation levels create natural vantage points and make the terrain interesting to explore.

The park was created on a former gravel pit site, and the natural elevation differences reaching up to 14 meters were deliberately incorporated into the design. These height variations make walking through the space more dynamic than in flatter parks around the city.
