Berlin Adlershof. Science at Work.
Discover the myth of Adlershof: founded in 1754, birthplace of German aviation, and site for research, film and television. Today the area has around 20,000 inhabitants, most located in the heart of the "old village". The Technology Park is close to the former airfield, now a landscape park.
The Berlin Adlershof Science City is one of the most successful high-technology locations in Germany—and Berlin’s largest media site. Renowned non-university research institutes, the natural sciences campus of Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, 1,330 businesses and a rich history await you at Berlin-Brandenburg’s top Science, Business and Media hub. More than 34,000 people work and study in the science city of Adlershof, which covers an area of 4.6 km². Learn more about all the facts and figures…
