Abstract

Nowadays the protection of quiet areas is an issue of increasing importance. This importance is reflected in the European directives and policy intentions of many countries around the world. In order to protect this areas, is important to characterize their soundscapes and analyze the areas, paying special attention to the geography, aesthetics, social, psychological and cultural aspects, since these aspects play a significant role in the noise perception. The aim of this research is to analyze two of the most important Berliner parks. Victoria-Park and Schlosspark are located in very different areas in Berlin. Schlosspark is in a more quiet neighborhood with families and Victoria-Park is in a lively, young and multicultural neighborhood. The protection of these parks begins understanding the community who make use of them. The research will be based on interviews and soundwalks according to the soundscape approach. The results will be presented.
