Getting married in the Gärten der Welt
In the Gardens of the World in Marzahn, there are two wedding venues to choose from: the Stone Boat in the Chinese Garden, which juts into the pond like a petrified ship, and the Hall of Receptions in the Oriental-Islamic Garden under a glass dome. As a wedding location in Berlin, this is a rare opportunity to get married amidst themed gardens.
The Gardens of the World in Marzahn: two wedding venues in one park
The Gardens of the World are located in Marzahn on the Kienberg and can be reached via the Kienberg U-Bahn station, from where the cable car floats over the park to the main entrance in a few minutes. A round trip costs 7.50 Euros, and a day ticket for the park in the summer season costs 9 Euros. Those arriving by car should plan for the current situation: Eisenacher Straße has been closed to vehicle traffic since early October 2026 because the Hellersdorf bridges are being rebuilt. The parking spaces at the north entrance remain accessible via Blumberger Damm. Within the park, paths lead through the themed gardens, two of which serve as wedding venues. The park brings together gardens from several continents on a site that emerged from the International Horticultural Exhibition 2017.
Stone Boat in the Chinese Garden, Hall of Receptions in the Orient
The Chinese Garden is called the Garden of the Reclaimed Moon, and at its center lies the 4,500 square meter pond Mirror of Heaven. On its bank stands the Stone Boat, a brick building in the shape of a ship, modeled after the Xiangzhou Ship House in Suzhou, China. Since 2003, it has been an outpost of the registry office and can accommodate up to 30 people. The second option is in the Oriental-Islamic Garden: the Hall of Receptions, added in 2007 based on designs by Kamel Louafi, spanned by a glass dome and lined with Moroccan Zillij tiles. The garden courtyard in front measures 63 by 38 meters. It can accommodate 35 to 50 guests, depending on the information. Appointments are exclusively assigned by the Marzahn-Hellersdorf Registry Office, and only on selected Fridays. The Teahouse in the Chinese Garden is currently being renovated and will remain closed until late autumn 2026; tea ceremonies will therefore take place in the Stone Boat during this time.
