Neu-Hohenschönhausen (pronounced as /de/,) is a German locality (Ortsteil) in the borough (Bezirk) of Lichtenberg, Berlin. Until 2001 it was part of the former Hohenschönhausen borough.
As early as the 19th century, the name Neu-Hohenschönhausen was applied to a settlement west of the old village of Hohenschönhausen, now occupied by the Sportforum and its surrounding neighborhood.[1] Today this area bears a different name.
Neu-Hohenschönhausen is located in the north-eastern part of Berlin. It borders with the localities of Malchow, Falkenberg, Wartenberg, Alt-Hohenschönhausen, Weißensee, Stadtrandsiedlung Malchow (both in Pankow district) and Marzahn (in Marzahn-Hellersdorf district).
The locality is divided into 4 zones (Ortsgebiete):
The locality is served by tram lines M4, M5 and M17 of the Berlin tram network and by the S-Bahn stations of Hohenschönhausen (S75 line and Regionalbahn regional rail), Gehrenseestraße (S75) and Wartenberg (S75).
