Friedrichshagen
The colony of Friedrichsgnade was founded on May 29, 1753 by King Frederick II of Prussia. Autonomous Prussian municipality of the former Niederbarnim district until 1920, it merged into Berlin with the "Greater Berlin Act." From 1949 to 1990, like the rest of the borough of Köpenick, it was part of East Berlin.
The ornithologist Jean Cabanis (1816–1906) died in Friedrichshagen.

Various Germanic tribes have inhabited the northern parts of modern Germany since classical antiquity. A region named Germania was documented before AD 100. In 962, the Kingdom of Germany formed the bulk of the Holy Roman Empire. During the 16th century, northern German regions became the centre of the Protestant Reformation. Following the Napoleonic Wars and the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire in 1806, the German Confederation was formed in 1815.
