Kleinmachnow
Germany
A Brandenburg municipality southwest of Berlin, Kleinmachnow is first recorded in 1375 and shaped by the Hake family of knights through much of its history. The 1906 replacement of the Bäke creek with the Teltow Canal left the town a now-listed historic floodgate. The construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961 cut the community off from West Berlin, leaving it isolated within the GDR until reunification in 1990, since when it has grown steadily as part of the wider Berlin commuter belt.
