Wahlperiode Vorlage – zur Beschlussfassung – Entwurf des Bebauungsplans I-219 (Humboldt-Forum) für das Gelände zwischen Schloßbrücke, Schloßplatz, Liebknechtbrücke, Spree, Rathausbrücke,Schloßplatz, Schleusenbrücke und Spreekanal sowie die Rathausbrücke, einen Abschnittder Spree und eine Teilfläche des Schloßplatzes im Bezirk Mitte, Ortsteil Mitte Der Senat von Berlin - Stadt Um II B 13 – Tel.: 9025-2109 An das Abgeordnetenhaus von Berlin über Senatskanzlei – G Sen – Vorblatt Vorlage – zur Beschlussfassung – über den Entwurf des Bebauungsplans I-219 (Humboldt-Forum) für das Gelände zwischen Schloßbrücke, Schloßplatz, Liebknechtbrücke, Spree, Rathausbrü- cke, Schloßplatz, Schleusenbrücke und Spreekanal sowie die Rathausbrücke, einen Abschnitt der Spree und eine Teilfläche des Schloßplatzes im Bezirk Mitte, Ortsteil Mitte A. Problem Die gegenwärtige städtebauliche Situation im Plangebiet wird der besonderen Bedeu- tung des Ortes nicht gerecht. Auf der Grundlage der entsprechenden Beschlüsse des Deutschen Bundestages und des Landes Berlin sollen die planungsrechtlichen Voraus- setzungen für den Bau des künftigen Humboldt-Forums in der Kubatur des früheren Schlosses geschaffen und der Standort für ein Freiheits- und Einheitsdenkmal - unter Be- rücksichtigung des denkmalgeschützten Sockels des ehemaligen Nationaldenkmals - gesichert werden. Das Plangebiet übernimmt im Rahmen seiner Funktion als Standort für eines der bedeu- tendsten kulturellen Bauvorhaben Deutschlands, mit dem Nutzungszweck des sonstigen Sondergebietes für Kultur, Bildung und Forschung, eine besondere öffentliche Aufgabe, die allein über die Regelungen der Zulässigkeit von Vorhaben nach § 34 BauGB nicht zu sichern ist. Auch ist die gegenwärtig nach § 34 BauGB zu beurteilende Zulässigkeit von Vorhaben unzureichend, um die städtebauliche Zielsetzung der Reurbanisierung des Plangebiets unter Berücksichtigung des Wettbewerbsergebnisses umzusetzen. Dies ist nur mit dem Instrument des Bebauungsplans möglich. Darüber hinaus ist die Aufstellung eines Bebauungsplans gemäß § 166 Abs. 1 BauGB aufgrund der Lage des Plangebietes im Bereich der mit Rechtsverordnung vom 17. Juni 1993 förmlich festgelegten Entwicklungsmaßnahme „Hauptstadt Berlin – Parlaments- und Regierungsviertel“ erforderlich. B. Lösung Durchführung eines Bebauungsplanverfahrens. 1 C. Alternative/ Rechtsfolgenabschätzung Keine. D. Kostenauswirkungen auf Privathaushalte und/oder Wirtschaftsunternehmen Im Plangebiet befinden sich keine Flächen im privaten Eigentum bzw. im Eigentum von Wirtschaftsunternehmen. Bauherr des Humboldt-Forums ist die privatrechtliche Stiftung „Berliner Schloss – Humboldtforum“. Die Finanzierung der Hochbaumaßnahmen – Frei- heits- und Einheitsdenkmal und Humboldt-Forum - erfolgt jedoch weitgehend aus öffent- lichen Mitteln. Die historischen Fassaden einschließlich der historischen Kuppel des e- hemaligen Schlosses sollen aus privaten Spenden finanziert werden. E. Gesamtkosten Gemäß Senatsbeschluss S-449/2007 vom 26.06.2007 beteiligt sich Berlin für eigene kul- turelle Nutzungen neben der Einbringung der landeseigenen Grundstücke an den Kosten der Baumaßnahme Humboldt-Forum mit 32 Mio. €. In der am 22.12.2011 von Bund und Land unterzeichneten Vereinbarung über die Finanzierung und Durchführung der Bau- maßnahme ist die Mittelbereitstellung detailliert geregelt. Dementsprechend wurden noch im Jahr 2011 12 Mio. € gezahlt. Im Jahr 2013 werden 5 Mio. €, im Jahr 2014 10 Mio. € und im Jahr 2015 weitere 5 Mio. €. zur Verfügung gestellt. Es handelt sich um Bruttofest- beträge. Infolge des Bebauungsplans sind finanzielle Auswirkungen aufgrund folgender - teilweise bereits durchgeführter - Maßnahmen zu erwarten: Freiraumgestaltung Schloßplatz einschl. prognostizierte Wettbewerbskosten: ca. 10,26 Mio. € Herstellung/ Grunderneuerung von Erschließungsstraßen (Schloßplatz Süd und Nord) ca. 3,3 Mio. € Sanierung Sockel ehem. Nationaldenkmal für die spätere Errichtung des Freiheits- und Einheitsdenkmals ca. 3,7 Mio. € Summe ca. 17,26 Mio. € F. Flächenmäßige Auswirkungen Der Geltungsbereich des Bebauungsplanes umfasst eine Fläche von 6,76 ha. Das Sons- tige Sondergebiet einschließlich der oberirdischen Flächen für Gehrechte zugunsten der Allgemeinheit ist 3,74 ha groß. Das Land Berlin bringt eine ca. 1,53 ha große Grundstücksfläche entsprechend den Ver- einbarungen mit der Bundesregierung gemäß obigem Senatsbeschluss in die Stiftung Berliner Schloss – Humboldtforum ein. Die Übertragung der landeseigenen Grundstücks- flächen erfolgt im Rahmen eines Zustiftungsvertrages, der federführend von der Senats- verwaltung für Finanzen verhandelt wird und zu gegebener Zeit dem Abgeordnetenhaus zur Zustimmung vorgelegt wird. 2 G.

  • Berlin's New Cultural Heart
    I Research Text Berlin’s new cultural heart Cultural stronghold and historical centre Berlin, September 2017 – Today, Berlin belongs to one of Europe’s leading centres of culture – and its heart beats strongest directly in the old historical city. For centuries, Berlin’s city centre has been home to a unique concentration of outstanding cultural institutions constructed on the ground where the medieval city of Berlin was founded. The modern Mitte district does not just boast the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Museum Island, but also two opera houses and six major theatres, as well as museums, innumerable galleries and arts venues. Now, this cultural ensemble is gaining a new dimension with many new major cultural projects located here, just a few minutes’ walk apart. You can find an overview of the main on-going and planned landmark projects below. Pierre Boulez Saal Opened in March 2017, the new Pierre Boulez Saal is a major international concert hall. Initiated by Daniel Barenboim, General Music Director of the Staatsoper Unter den Linden, the hall was developed by American architect Frank Gehry and with globally acclaimed acoustician Yasuhisa Toyota creating the impeccable acoustics. Lined with light Canadian cedarwood, the Pierre-Boulez-Saal offers a flexible design allowing the auditorium’s seating as well as the stage to be arranged in various constellations for a wide spectrum of events. The concert hall is also the public face of the Barenboim-Said Akademie, not only serving as its home venue but also a space where young musicians from conflict zones in the Middle East can practice under the guidance of their mentors.

  • Staatliche Museen Zu Berlin September 24–29, 2017 September, 2017
    Staatliche Museen zu Berlin September 24–29, 2017 September, 2017 Dear PREP Participants Welcome back to PREP and Willkommen in Berlin! It is wonderful to have you all here. We hope the coming week will be as interesting and insightful as the week we spent in New York in February. Over the coming days, we aim to introduce you to the key re- sources Berlin has to offer to researchers studying art losses in the Nazi-Era and also to other colleagues here in Berlin who are involved in provenance research in a variety of ways. We would also like to make you familiar with some of the institutions that are part of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin and give you an idea of the work they are doing with regard to provenance research. Most of all, however, we would like to provide the setting in which you can continue the conversations you began in New York and carry on building the network that is PREP. We have asked you to contribute to quite a few of the events – thank you all for your many ideas and suggestions! We have tried to build PREP around the participants and your expertise and input are crucial to the success of the program. This applies not only to the coming week, but also to the future develop- ment of the PREP-Network. There are two ways in which we hope you will contribute to the long term success of PREP. One of these is that we hope you will all keep in touch after you leave Berlin and continue supporting each other in the impor- tant work you do.

  • 60 Incoherent Renovation in Berlin: Is There a Way
    New Design Ideas Vol.3, No.1, 2019, pp.60-78 INCOHERENT RENOVATION IN BERLIN: IS THERE A WAY FORWARD? Malcolm Millais Independent researcher, Porto, Portugal Abstract. This paper briefly describes the fates of four of Berlin‟s most iconic cultural buildings. These are the Berlin Palace, the Neues Museum, the Berlin Dom (Cathedral) and the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church. Using a variety of historical styles, all these buildings were built, or finished, in the nineteenth century, and all suffered serious damage due to aerial bombing in the Second World War. As all were repairable, the obvious choice might seem to reinstate them to their original condition: but this did not happen to any of them. This paper examines the incoherence of the various renovations, and briefly addresses the problem of formulating a coherent approach to renovation, particularly with reference to the 1964 Venice Charter. Keywords: Berlin, renovation, Venice Charter, iconic buildings, war damage, monstrous carbuncle, wartime bombing, cultural destruction. Corresponding Author: Malcolm Millais, Porto, Portugal, e-mail: [email protected] Received: 4 December 2018; Accepted: 24 January 2019; Published: 28 June 2019. 1. Introduction What can be said about all four of the buildings examined here is that: All, except in some aspects the Neues Museum, were extremely solidly built, so, given routine maintenance, could have be expected to have lasted for probably hundreds of years. All were severely damaged by aerial bombing during the Second World War. All were repairable. All suffered further destruction due to various political ideologies such as Communism, Modernism and Nationalism. All have been reinstated in a variety of ways, none of which are universally accepted.

    Inclusive National Belonging Intercultural Performances in the “World-Open” Germany Bruce Snedegar Burnside Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2020 © 2020 Bruce Snedegar Burnside All Rights Reserved Abstract Inclusive National Belonging Intercultural Performances in the “World-Open” Germany Bruce Snedegar Burnside This dissertation explores what it means to belong in Berlin and Germany following a significant change in the citizenship laws in 2000, which legally reoriented the law away from a “German” legal identity rooted in blood-descent belonging to a more territorially-based conception. The primary goal is to understand attempts at performing inclusive belonging by the state and other actors, with mostly those of “foreign heritage” at the center, and these attempts’ pitfalls, opportunities, challenges, and strange encounters. It presents qualitative case studies to draw attention to interculturality and its related concepts as they manifest in a variety of contexts. This study presents a performance analysis of a ceremony at a major national museum project and utilizes a discursive analysis of the national and international media surrounding a unique controversy about soccer and Islam. The study moves to a peripheral neighborhood in Berlin and a marginal subject, a migration background Gymnasium student, who featured prominently in an expose about failing schools, using interviews and a text analysis to present competing narratives. Finally it examines the intimate, local view of a self-described “intercultural” after- school center aimed at migration-background girls, drawing extensively on ethnographic interviews and media generated by the girls.These qualitative encounters help illuminate how an abstract and often vague set of concepts within the intercultural paradigm becomes tactile when encountering those for whom it was intended.

A FRAGMENTED TREASURE ON DISPLAY. THE TURFAN TEXTILE COLLECTION AND THE HUMBOLDT FORUM. Mariachiara Gasparini In 2011, the first time I saw a few fragments of the Turfan textile collection, held in the Museum für Asiatische Kunst (Museum of Asian Art) in Berlin, I had no idea that they represented only a small part of a range of about three hundred fifty compounds that, different in style and technique and datable to between the eighth and the fourteenth centuries, comprised the collection. The fragments were gathered, together with wall paintings, architectural wooden structures, sculptures, and other tools of daily use, during the four Prussian-Turfan expeditions conducted by Albert Grünwedel (1856-1935) and Albert von Le Coq (1860-1930) at the beginning of the last century, between 1902 and 1914, in the Xinjiang Province of China.

The palace, having served as the principal residence of Brandenburg margraves and electors and later of Prussian kings and the German Emperor, was partly demolished during WWII and subsequently, in 1950, blasted by the GDR government of Walter Ulbricht. In 1973, the Palace of the Republic (Palast der Republik) was built on the eastern side of the Palace Square, housing the GDR People’s Parliament and serving as popular venue for cultural events after its inception in 1976. Importantly, the 2002 decision implied that the Palace of the Republic, one of the most important architectural monuments of the former GDR’s capital in the now unified Berlin, would be torn down. It was decided that it should give place to a new building in the cubature of the former city palace, including the reconstruction of its historical baroque facades on three sides of the building.[1] Fig 1: The “Humboldt-Box”, bordering on the palace’s construction site, advertizes the future Humboldt-Forum © Bose.

This course is taught in English, including readings in English. For the understanding of the texts and the discussions in class a language level Course Language B2 or higher (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) is required. ECTS 5 ECTS (45 contact hours) Instructor Anna Katharina Neufeld, M.A. Course Description Museums are keepers of our culture memory. Collecting, preserving and exhibiting are the main tasks museums stand for. Museums focus different subjects and face historical and cultural differences in various ways. What is worth collecting, or how are objects labeled, in what way are they displayed? These are essential questions museums pose today. The course wants to look at how different museums in Berlin answer these questions. Viewing historical and cultural heritage within the context of a collection brings up the issue of how objects are (re-)animated to tell a story within an exhibition. So, visits to collections and current exhibitions as for instance the me collectors room, the Humboldt Box, the Jewish Museum Berlin or the DDR Museum are planned. How are exhibitions made? What are significant tools curators use to amplify their thesis? What does hands on mean? How are objects animated, what stories do they tell and how do they respond to questions of gender or race? Course Objective & Learning Outcomes Visiting different museums and types of exhibitions in Berlin, the course aims at providing an overview from the first collections as cabinets of wonders over to that what is known as Berlin’s museum island.
