About
Volkspark Prenzlauer Berg is a public park in the Prenzlauer Berg quarter of the Pankow borough in Berlin, Germany. Laid out over a landscaped rubble hill (Schuttberg) historically called the Oderbruchkippe (Oderbruch landfill), it covers roughly 29 hectares and consists of planted slopes and plateaus with footpaths, lawns and viewpoints. The area was regraded and planted in the 1960s after serving as a deposition site for post-war building debris cleared from inner-city districts such as Alexanderplatz; the park was inaugurated under its present name in 1969.
