Basdorf is a village just north of Berlin in the German State of Brandenburg. It has grown over the years from a small feudal and monastic holding of a few farms, felt the rapid developments of the Industrial revolution, played a part in building the might of the National Socialist army, felt the effects of Soviet style collectivisation, and emerged after the unification of Germany as a vibrant and growing modern community.

This website contains English language information for visitors to Basdorf, or for those who are interested in the history of a typical Brandenburger village over the centuries.
