Green areas in Berlin's middle: rejuvenation and species protection from October!

In Berlin-Mitte, the district's green areas will be carried out in Berlin-Mitte from October 1, 2024. These steps mainly serve to take traffic routes and cut individual trees to a maximum of 2/3 of their height. In addition, the rejuvenation and reset of wood areas are also carried out, which means that larger cuts are required.

The experts from the Mitte street and green area office ensure that the inventory vegetation in the affected areas in which the cutting measures are carried out is carefully checked. This is done to ensure that the activities of birds and other protected animals are not disturbed or impaired.

In order to actively support species protection, the cutting measures on the different areas are carried out alternately and distributed over several years. The clippings are largely chopped and remains on the treated areas to support the natural cycle.

These measures help to maintain the green areas in Berlin-Mitte in the long term and to create a species-rich habitat for plants and animals. Interested citizens are welcome to contact the Mitte district office if you have any questions or further information needs.
