Studentendorf Schlachtensee Berlin

The Studentendorf Schlachtensee – a reflection of the history of the Federal Republic
The Studentendorf Schlachtensee is the nucleus of today´s cooperative with its academic housing complex near the Freie Universität in south-west Berlin as well as on the campus of the Humboldt Universität in Adlershof.

The Studentendorf (originally Studentendorf of the Freie Universität) is part of the extensive Re-education Programme of the USA. Not only should the future academic elite find a home here but also experience a political and democratic education. This idea is not only reflected in the architecture but in various institutions, like the tutor programme, the council and workgroups, the library and other cultural facilities, which have all been financed by the US State Department.
