Memorial "Blutmauer"
Located on the site of the former cemetery wall. Reconstruction of the wall according to structural problems in 1978 and 1981. Originally from 1920.
The name goes back to the bloody events on March 12 and 13, 1919, when at least eleven insurgents were shot in front of the southern border wall of the then still existing cemetery on Möllendorffstraße for their participation in the March battles.
The battles marked the end of the November Revolution in Berlin in 1918. A memorial site from the 1920s was destroyed after 1933. After 1945, another memorial was erected on the site. The memorial plaques erected on the "Blood Wall" in 2021 bear the names of the eight people murdered who are known by name.
