Mauerpark

Development & Participation

Mauerpark has been a place of lively public participation since the early 1990s. And Grün Berlin has been accompanying this process for almost as long: from the establishment of the park on the former border area to the doubling of its space in 2020 and the current careful restoration of the original park. On the following pages, we have compiled more information on the history of the popular park, the role of Berliners in its development and the opportunities to participate in the design of the current qualification.

Participation

Mauerpark was a place of active civic participation from the very beginning. Immediately after the fall of the Wall, citizens had already made the site their own.
