The children's circus CABUWAZI can also be found in Altglienicke, one of six locations in Berlin. The yellow and red striped circus tent, in which children and young people show what they can do, shines from afar: dancing, juggling, magic, balancing, acrobatics and entertaining the audience as clowns! Many young people are on stage here for the first time. CABUWAZI is a place to get to know each other, try things out, make friends and discover your own strengths - it's fun and brings people together.

Goats, sheep, ponies, cats and rabbits: At the inclusive WASLALA children's farm, young guests look after the many four-legged friends all year round. The name of the facility stands for a peaceful place of coexistence, as in the novel of the same name by Gioconda Belli. The grounds with adventure playground are - except for family Saturdays - a parent-free zone! Here, the children can look after animals together, build wooden huts, bake stick bread, catch fish, romp around and be creative. They are supervised by trained teachers. The most important rule: tolerance and respectful coexistence. Registration is not necessary.
Knacker with fried potatoes, farmer's omelette with currywurst, stacked schnitzel with chips or spiced meat with cheese and lecho? You can have it!

In a friendly atmosphere, the couple who run it serve hearty dishes and various types of beer at fair prices. Information in advance: only cash is king here.
Since 2007, people with and without a migration background have been meeting to garden together in the Altglienicke Intercultural Garden on Nelkenweg.

The residents who tend the garden are neighbors with roots in Russia, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Turkmenistan and Germany.
The Altglienicke water tower on Schirnerstrasse is a real eye-catcher. It rises 39 metres into the air and is made of red bricks. Almost 120 years ago, a water supply association decided to build it in order to provide the three communities of Altglienicke, Adlershof and Grünau with fresh water. The large water tank had a capacity of 600 cubic metres. The listed landmark of Altglienicke, which was taken out of service in 1956, is currently being renovated - apartments are being built there at lofty heights.
The architects Max Bel, Franz Clement and Hermann Muthesius built the Preußensiedlung from 1910 to 1913, a planned settlement based on the English model, with a total of 54 small residential buildings. This complex was completely spared from the destruction of the Second World War and clearly shows that it comes from another time. Strolling through the so-called garden city, you feel like you are in a cozy, small village. In 1997, the Preußensiedlung was listed as a historical monument.
