Hönow (German pronunciation: [ˈhøːnoː] ⓘ) is a village in Brandenburg, Germany, near the border of Berlin.
Situated in the western side Märkisch-Oderland, Hönow borders the city of Berlin (district of Marzahn-Hellersdorf).
From the Retsee another stream leads into the house lake, which lies immediately west of the village center.
(see Google Maps) From the Haussee the stream leads into the Hönower Weiherkette (German pronunciation: [ˈhøːnoːɐ ˈvaɪɐˌkɛtə] ⓘ) where it becomes the Hellersdorfer Graben.
Hönow's oldest building is located here, built in the Middle Ages late Romanesque village church.
His lucky tea brought him enough money to build on his approximately 20,000 m2 of land in 1900, a hunting lodge - the Glücksburg.
The Fischs had to vacate the Glücksburg area from 1960, when the state security wanted to build a holiday and training center here.
Within the settlement extension, a green belt has been created, which is crossed by small pools, long walks and some playgrounds.
This is a kind of extension to the nature reserve Hönower Weiherkette, which was incorporated during the settlement expansion of Berlin in the 1980s in the district Hellersdorf.
In the 13th century Johann I and Otto III built a settlement at this place, which was mentioned first in the landbook of Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor.
