Welcome to the HNEE!
The 200-year-old Eberswalde University for Sustainable Development (HNEE) is just 30 minutes by train from Berlin Central Station. The ideal place to learn and experiment for anyone who wants to help shape the sustainable transformation of our society.
Developing and implementing solutions that not only reduce our ecological footprint, but also increase our sustainable handprint and have an impact - that is our goal here at HNEE

The HNEE city campus - one of three university locations, with a pond biotope, modern art and university buildings in various architectural styles.

The Alte Forstakademie in Schicklerstraße on the HNEE city campus, a former two-storey residential building, was built in 1793. After remodelling, it housed the state forestry academy from 1830.

The Neue Forstakademie in Schicklerstraße on the HNEE city campus was built between 1874 and 1876 as a new administration and lecture theatre building in the neo-Renaissance style.

Outdoor events are also held here in summer.

The HNEE Forest Botanical Garden is one of the oldest gardens in Europe and is a central unit of the university.
