Marzahn

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Marzahn is a locality within the borough Marzahn-Hellersdorf of Berlin.

Marzahn became part of Greater Berlin in 1920, as a part of the Lichtenberg district. In 1979 the large housing estate of Marzahn was separated from Lichtenberg to become an East Berlin borough in its own right, together with the locality of Biesdorf. Berlin's 2001 administrative reform led to the former districts of Marzahn and Hellersdorf fusing into a single new borough.

In the north the locality includes the Ahrensfelde neighborhood, which once belonged to the Brandenburg municipality of Ahrensfelde and was incorporated into Berlin in 1990.
