From 1709 to 1712 further building expansion was carried out, during which the characteristic turrets and the orangery appeared.>> Wikipedia |

Rathaus Köpenick City Hall Köpenick The main building was created from 1901 to 1904 according to plans by Hugo Kinzer and Hans Schutte and was rebuilt and expanded several times. The Köpenick City Hall became famous in 1906 when the unemployed shoemaker William Vogt, dressed in an officer's uniform which he bought in a secondhand market, arrested officials from the city and extorted from them ample amounts from the city treasury. Although he was arrested later, the play "The Captain from Koepenick" by Carl Zuckmayer made him famous as a typical Berliner. |
