The exhibition at a glance

Under the title "Wasser Sport Grünau," the history of the regatta grounds and its boathouses is conveyed, showing the development of boatbuilding and the diverse club landscape.



Water sports remain inextricably linked to the history of Grünau to this day. The first Berlin sailing regatta took place here in 1868, and rowing clubs built their attractive boathouses along the Dahme River.


Boats, tools, photographs, and historical documents form the basis of an exhibition that provides insights into the eventful history of clubs, technical developments, and political upheavals.


‘WASSER SPORT GRÜNAU – An Overview of the Exhibition’ takes place Sundays from 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.
