Historic garden year at Schlosspark Altdöbern
Schlosspark Altdöbern is the heart of the Internationale Jugendbauhütte Gartendenkmalpflege. Up to ten volunteers live and work on the baroque and landscape park, about 100 km south of Berlin, under garden and heritage tutors.
What you can do
- Read the Gartendenkmalpflege page
- Apply via Bewerben and request historic parks
- Expect shared housing on site and seminar weeks with craft modules (clay, forge, timber)
- Visit the park landscape when public openings are announced; the FSJ itself is the join pathway
When & where

How it works
Tutors assign park plots and projects. Intercultural teams work outdoors through the seasons and meet for mandatory seminars, including a certified chainsaw course.
Why it matters
Restoring a historic park keeps shade, water edges, and public beauty in play for the next century.
