Lichtenberg

Bouldering with a Spree panorama instead of a Sunday on the couch: The Ostbloc Boulder Hall in Rummelsburg combines athletic challenge across over 1,000 m² with a genuine feel-good atmosphere directly on Rummelsburger Bucht. Those who venture out alone will find an open community and weekly changing routes that are guaranteed to never bore anyone.

Das Weinlokal in Rupprechtstraße in Lichtenberg belongs to sommelier Salvatore Lampariello, who is among the 50 best sommeliers in Germany.

The water playground in the Wilhelm-Guddorf-Straße green area in Lichtenberg was inaugurated on June 3, 2025, making it the newest facility on this list. The water is of drinking water quality, the themed playground is called Spree Ahoi, and its features include an inclusive trampoline that can also be used by wheelchair users.

KiKiLa on Schulze-Boysen-Straße has been run by the Kinderhilfe in Lichtenberg association since 2008. Everything on the shelves comes from in-kind donations from the neighborhood: children's clothes, toys, picture books, and balance bikes.

From November 11, 2026, Jelänger Jelieber in Berlin Lichtenberg will be offering succulent goose dinner.

The bridal fashion atelier Lara.S in Scheffelstraße in Lichtenberg combines two things that are otherwise separate: a curated selection of wedding dresses and its own tailoring studio.

At Rummelsburger Bucht, instead of a rental station, there's a solar-powered vending machine with lockers: book online, open the locker with a code, take out a board or kayak, and start paddling. Paddles and a dry bag are included, with prices starting from 14.99 Euros. For spontaneous water sports in Berlin, Heiuki is the most straightforward address in the city.

Because Lichtenberg has banned grilling in all green areas, the bookable BBQ area of the Hafenküche in the Citymarina at Rummelsburger Bucht remains the only option for the district. The rental includes a sunsail, a table for twelve people, a BBQ fireplace with charcoal and electricity, and a maximum of 17 guests are allowed. Grilling in the park becomes grilling directly by the water here.

Berlin's swimming pools boast glamour and grandeur, but in the Fennpfuhl district of Lichtenberg, the Anton-Saefkow-Platz swimming hall proves that good swim training doesn't need a grand staircase. Clear lanes, clean water, and GDR architecture as a backdrop: here, the essentials matter.
