Mauerpark

A special open space with a history and a future

Mauerpark combines political memory with everyday urban life and city nature like no other place. Located between Wedding and Prenzlauer Berg, it epitomises Berlin's attitude to life, cultural openness, leisure time in the countryside and cross-generational participation. This is where the city's history, present and future meet - low-threshold, open and lively.

Whether making music, gardening, skating or strolling: The park thrives on its diversity. As an open space for social integration in the densely built-up city. As a green retreat for climate resilience and biodiversity. And as a centre of attraction for visitors from all over the world.

With the realisation and management of the Mauerpark extension, which was completed in 2020, Grün Berlin is working with citizens and the district of Pankow to make Mauerpark fit for the future: the new area has more greenery and space for quieter uses. With the ongoing qualification process, the eastern part of Mauerpark is now also being carefully and climate-resiliently developed. New concepts and technical solutions in the management of the park will increase the quality of stay and at the same time reduce the costs of running the park in the long term.

For even more efficient management, Grün Berlin has been responsible for the care and maintenance of the entire Mauerpark since January 2025 in close coordination with the district of Pankow and the Senate Department for Mobility, Transport, Climate Protection and the Environment.

Leisure & recreation

The expansion of the Mauerpark offers a variety of recreational opportunities on the areas of the former industrial park towards the Brunnenviertel and many opportunities to find some peace and quiet in the hectic everyday life of the big city.

Development & participation

The development of Mauerpark has been accompanied by Grün Berlin since the early 1990s. This has been done in close exchange with the citizens and residents of the park.
