Sprengplatz Grunewald, Explosives storage and detonation area in Steglitz-Zehlendorf, Germany.

The Sprengplatz Grunewald occupies a 40,000 square meter zone within the Nikolassee district where explosives disposal operations take place.

The facility handles unexploded ordnance from World War II, which continues to surface throughout Berlin during construction and development projects.

Berlin residents receive regular notifications about scheduled detonations as part of the city's commitment to public safety and communication.

The site conducts approximately 70 small detonations and eight large operations annually, with an operational budget of one million euros.

In 2022, a major fire at the facility required 27 days to extinguish and dispersed over 4,000 explosive devices across the surrounding forest.
