Wild West construction playground

  • Playground
An educational playground where children can get creative with hammering and sawing.
You can hear the tapping, hammering and sawing of the busy little craftsmen from afar. The Wilder Westen construction playground towers up like a wooden fortress.

Children aged between 6 and 13 can build wooden houses, huts, bridges and other constructions with their own hands using real tools.
Once a week, there is a bicycle workshop where they work together on their bicycles. Various herbs and vegetables are grown in the garden. There is also a fire pit, clay building and other activities. If it is too cold or wet outside to build, climb or play hide and seek, there is a warm construction trailer. There you can warm up, play games, read, drink tea or do handicrafts.
