Charlottenburg: Alt-Lietzow

Alt-Lietzow reflects the historic origins of Charlottenburg with older buildings and a central urban setting near the Spree. Alt-Lietzow is shaped above all by the surviving older street pattern, plot structure and building lines that remain legible beneath later development. In Alt-Lietzow, the daily character emerges through the overlap of historic fabric with present-day housing, shops and local institutions. Alt-Lietzow lies in the borough of Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, about 6.5 km west of central Berlin. Alt-Lietzow merges gradually into Kaiserin-Augusta-Allee and Richard-Wagner-Straße; building scale, street activity and open space change before any clear boundary is felt. The character of Alt-Lietzow is clearest along everyday routes between homes, public space and nearby destinations. Within Charlottenburg, Alt-Lietzow stands out through the continuity of the original settlement within modern Berlin.
