Overview

  • The Berlin Senate's plan to fence Görlitzer Park is part of a broader initiative to curb drug-related crime and violence in green spaces.
  • Police are preparing detailed security measures to protect construction sites and workers as the project faces growing opposition.
  • Activist group 'Görli 24/7' has sent letters to construction companies, warning of civil disobedience and urging them to avoid involvement in the project.
  • The planned fence will feature advanced security elements, including vandalism-resistant gates and electronic locking systems, with completion expected by December 20, 2025.
  • Authorities emphasize that while peaceful protests are legitimate, threats and intimidation against contractors will be met with firm police action.
