Gartenstadt Falkenberg

The earliest of the inscribed estates and the one closest to the English garden-city model, at the southeastern edge of the city rather than in the dense inner districts. It carries the 2008 inscription as the first-named component of the group, whose building history the state heritage office traces to the acute housing shortage that followed 1914 to 1918. Postal district 12524, and small enough that the whole thing reads as a few streets of terraces and gardens.
