Tegel: Berlin's Former Airport District, Tegeler See, and Reinickendorf's Northern Lakeside Quarter
Tegel is a neighbourhood in Berlin's Reinickendorf borough with a population around 36,800. The area was dominated by Flughafen Berlin-Tegel (TXL), which served as West Berlin's main airport from 1948 and continued operating until its closure in 2020. The airport site is being redeveloped as the Tegel Projekt, planned to include a research campus, housing, and a landscape park.
The Tegeler See, a lake in the Havel river system, offers sailing, swimming, and shoreline walks. The Humboldt-Bibliothek, a modern library on the lakefront, is an architectural highlight. The Borsigturm, a 1920s expressionist tower built for the Borsig locomotive factory, is a Reinickendorf landmark. The Greenwich-Promenade along the lake draws visitors. The U6 metro connects Tegel to central Berlin in about 25 minutes. Adult companionship follows Berlin's city-state rules.
