RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES


The Organic Farm and Outdoor Museum Domäne in Dahlem is a great all-weather attraction. Visitors of this 800 year old former manor can experience the development of food from harvest to consumption. The related farm shop furthermore offers the harvested and processed groceries for sale. The CULINARIUM is also part of the Museum and takes visitors on a journey through time. It shows the development and history of food and our consumption from as early as 1850 to today.
The Capitol Dahlem, a historic movie theater situated in a villa, shows the most current movies. But apart from the movies, this theater is nothing close to a usual movie theater: grape ivy trails up the walls of the building that welcomes its visitors in the large front yard. Instead of popcorn, the Capitol offers champagne and the prestigious hall is reminiscent of a private villa more than of a movie hall. Enjoy the movies in a whole different way.
