Unchanged reprint at a lower price! Even during the GDR era, Prenzlauer Berg was something special, and hardly any other district has attracted as much attention since the fall of the Wall. Pushed to the outskirts with the construction of the Wall on August 13, 1961, it suddenly found itself back in the center of the city. Time and again, tourists, publicists, journalists, and filmmakers from both Germany and abroad are fascinated by this last remaining intact old building area in Europe, whose core was established in the last third of the 19th century. The chronicle provides information about all significant developments and events in Prenzlauer Berg from its beginnings until June 2008. Through facts and personalities, it guides readers through the history of the formerly independent district of Prenzlauer Berg, which has formed part of the larger district of Pankow along with Weissensee and Pankow since early 2001.
