Ziegeleipark Mildenberg: Where Industrial History Becomes an Experience

The Zehdenick brickworks district was once the largest in Europe, and billions of bricks produced here were used to build Berlin and large parts of the Mark region. Today, the site is a unique walk-through open-air museum. At various exhibition points, original preserved buildings and workshops can be visited, bringing the history from the founding era of the 1890s to the closure in 1990 to life. So, whoever plans a weekend trip to Brandenburg will find a place here that goes far beyond the classic museum format. In addition to the old ring kilns and machine halls, which invite visitors to build, crank, stack, press, and observe, there are also interactive exhibitions to discover. Furthermore, visitors can ride various field railways and experience exciting guided tours through the impressive industrial architecture. If desired, one can even make a brick themselves.

Family Outing, Festivals and Open Air

Special highlights include the popular brick railway, a water and adventure playground, and a picnic area right by the water. In addition to the multimedia and interactive exhibitions on brick history, train rides, rail bikes, and go-karts provide diverse experiences on the expansive grounds. This makes the destination equally suitable for families, history enthusiasts, and anyone who simply wants to spend an active day in Brandenburg’s nature. The event program is also impressive. Seasonal highlights include the Märkische Steam Spectacle, the ANNOTOPIA Fantasy Festival, and the Vintage Car and Tractor Meet. For multi-day stays, comfortable accommodation options such as guest rooms, holiday homes, and campsites are also available. Ziegeleipark Mildenberg is open seasonally and increased its visitor numbers to over 52,000 – proof that this place has long unfolded its charm beyond the region.
