In the course of the northern extension of Berlin during the 19th century, many people settled in the suburbs, attracted by the proximity to nature and the low price of land. One of them was the coppersmith August Friedrich Theodor Rohmann. In 1865 he acquired a property by the Havel originally intending to establish a copper mine. The settlement was officially established in 1868 and named "Conrads Höh", after the oldest son of Rohmann.[2]
Jörsfelde, the biggest one, is situated in the north with its center located in the square Falkenplatz.;[3] Tegelort is the southern side located in a peninsula formed by the Havel river and Lake Tegel.[4]
Transport
The locality is not served by railways, but by the bus lines 222 and 324 and also by a couple of private ferry lines to Hakenfelde.
