New playground in Berkum: A paradise for children and families!

A new playground in Berkum is now accessible to the public and promises fun and adventure for children and families. After around two years of planning and construction, the newly designed facility was opened in January 2025, a significant step in the framework of the village development program Kanal-Fuhse-Region-West.

For different age groups there is a versatile playhouse that invites you to explore and stimulate the imagination.
