About Steglitz
What are the main landmarks in Steglitz?
Steglitz is best known for the Bierpinsel, a bold tower straddling the district's main junction. Nearby stand the Ceciliengärten, a listed garden housing estate, and churches such as the Lukaskirche, the Patmoskirche and the Dreieinigkeitskirche. Art belongs here too.
The Skulpturengarten AVK sets sculpture among greenery, while the older Landhaus Dihm recalls the villa suburbs that shaped Steglitz.
What is the history of Steglitz?
Steglitz grew from a country village into one of Berlin's villa suburbs, a shift the surviving Landhaus Dihm still marks. Detached houses spread across it. Later the Ceciliengärten rose as a model garden estate, and the Bierpinsel eventually gave the district a modern landmark above its main road, by then a settled part of the wider city of Berlin.
Where is Steglitz?
Steglitz lies among the inner suburbs of Berlin, an inland district built of streets and squares rather than water. The Bierpinsel and the Ceciliengärten anchor it.
