The Paul-Hertz-Siedlung estate, east of the Kurt-Schumacher-Damm, was built between 1961 and 1965.
Here and in the new housing development built to the west, almost all of the streets, squares, schools and bridges – including the housing estate itself – are named after resistance fighters, opponents of National Socialism or people who took part in the plot to assassinate Hitler on 20 July 1944.
Women and men such as Helmuth James Graf von Moltke – after whom the primary school here is named – were sentenced to death for resisting the National Socialist regime and executed at Plötzensee.
