Criegernweg

Friedrichsfelde

Named after Criegernweg, which honours the general Paul von Criegern.

Paul von Criegern (1850–1930), from Bautzen, was a Saxon lieutenant general who fought in the war of 1870/71 and, recalled despite his age, led a brigade in Flanders in 1914. The short residential street, first called ‘Straße 124’, was named after him in 1936. It lies on the former Treskow estate.
