Weissensee
As Berlin's smallest district (by inhabitants) it had historically been slightly in the shadow of its neighbouring boroughs Prenzlauer Berg and Pankow. However its popularity is increasing due to its proximity to the fashionable (but expensive) Prenzlauer Berg. With its tram connections it also has easy access to central Berlin.
Weissensee is appreciated as a good choice for people seeking for a balance between urban life and seclusion in a peaceful district of Berlin. The immediate area around the lake Weißer See is characterized by its historical architecture, numerous places of interest, parks, lakes and activities. The art school Kunsthochschule Berlin-Weissensee is of nationwide rank. At Weissensee Cemetery, one of Europe's largest Jewish cemeteries, notable people like the painter Lesser Ury and the publishers Samuel Fischer and Rudolf Mosse are buried here.
