Babelsberg Park

Highlight • Rest Area

In 1902, a pedestrian bridge was built over the Teltow Canal. This bridge was given to the Emperor Wilhelm II as a compensation for the land needed for canal construction, which he had ceded. It was considered the most beautiful bridge over the entire Teltow Canal.

The bridge was destroyed at the end of World War II, but quickly rebuilt. With the construction of the border fortifications in connection with the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961, the parking bridge became the border checkpoint and Klein Glienicke the restricted area.

With the fall of the Berlin Wall - with Klein Glienicke - the bridge was also reopened for traffic. Since the bridge is very narrow, the construction of a traffic light system was necessary in order to realize for the individual Verklehr.

Steam Engine House

Already quite bizarre, what elaborate "disguises" were once devised for utility buildings:
A pump house in Moorish style 😅
Today, however, the structure is an absolute eye-catcher!

The Glienicke Bridge connects Berlin with Brandenburg and was known in the Cold War as a place of exchange for agents, since here West Berlin bordered on the GDR.

Even without any historical background, the view from the park over the lake (deep lake and Glienicker See) is beautiful!

View of the Havel River

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Bridge from Potsdam to Babelsberg. I use this bridge a lot, especially coming out of Park Babelsberg and heading into Potsdam's Hollandische Viertel off Nuthestrasse and onto Gutenbergstrasse for coffee and bagels. A fine surface.

You can go down to the waters edge path at the south east end. The Park Babelsberg is worth including on your route. The path along the water has a fine view onto Potsdam and later the Glienicke Brücke.
