Overview


It was created by splitting the localities of Hohenschönhausen, Wartenberg, Falkenberg and the eastern part of Malchow off the 1920 Weißensee borough. In 2001 it was absorbed by the borough of Lichtenberg. The locality of Hohenschönhausen was then renamed Alt-Hohenschönhausen while the housing estates of Wartenberg, Falkenberg and Malchow form the Neu-Hohenschönhausen locality.


Culture


Alt-Hohenschönhausen is home to the Hohenschönhausen Memorial Center on the site of a former Stasi prison.[1][2] It is also the location of the large sports complex Sportforum Hohenschönhausen.

Hohenschönhausen Castle is located in Alt-Hohenschönhausen. The Association Hohenschönhausen Castle cares for the restoration and cultural revitalization of this manor house and regularly organizes different events in the castle, such as exhibitions, readings, and concerts.
