From the vineyards to the retention basin – about the history of the rainwater-retention-basin in Kreuzberg
Date: Saturday, 02.05.2026
Time: 3–6 pm
Course leader: Ute Lindenbeck – artist and educator
This workshop tour invites you to explore the history of a unique urban site together. The retention basin is an engineering structure in which a valuable aquatic ecosystem has established itself over the years. Since 2018, the Floating University has coexisted with the local non-human community, creating an experimental space where city and nature, research and imagination intertwine. Through a guided tour and shared reflections, we observe the fragile interplay between environment and urbanity and ask ourselves: What stories do places like this tell us – and which ones do we wish to carry into the future?
We learn about the historical and current uses of the site and discuss the conflicting future plans intended to develop the area. What role can our engagement play in this, and what does it mean to appropriate spaces in the city – not as property, but as a shared practice in solidarity with its past?
Please bring clothing suitable for the weather.

Meeting point: At the gate of the Floating University

EVERY MONDAY from 9 – 11 am
There is no need to register and participation is free of charge.
Space for Practice makes time and space for movement practice with/in the rainwater retention basinof Floating. It is a regular activity with/in irregular conditions such as weather, other activities and the presence of people, beings and materials. It is an occasion for practices to encounter a place, for choreographers to encounter practitioners, for practitioners to encounter the site of Floating and for the site to shape the practices.
This year’s edition is convened and facilitated in changing constellations by the Choreographic Milieu: Alice Chauchat, Clément Layes, Daniel Belasco Rogers, Gabriele Reuter, Ghyslaine Gau, Lea Martini, Paula Kramer and Sabine Zahn. We all offer proposals that stem from our respective practices/curiosities and from the site, whilst following each other’s traces.
We start on time at 9 am and all who are present hold the space collectively. All are welcome, regardless of whether you have experience with movement practices or not. Important is that we are all committed to working things out together.
Space for Practice is partially funded by Basisförderung (Department of Culture, Senate of Berlin) for Floating e.V. and otherwise made possible by the collective’s commitment to make it happen.
On Thursdays, Floating is open from 6–9pm. You can come, spend time, be with the place, the water, the reeds, the frogs – they are our program. Sometimes we share a meal, a concert, or a screening. Join us in the basin!
Open Thursdays are hosted by Adriana, Carmen, Hannah Lu, Niusha, Orlan, Rain and Serena.

water and resources in Berlin

Berlin and rainwater – an invisible yet vital relationship. Most of our drinking water comes from bank filtrat and groundwater, which is fed also by rain. If there is no rain, the city’s water systems come under pressure. During heavy rainfall, however, the sewerage system reaches its limits – with consequences for rivers and canals. Rain is essential for life, yet it is scarcely noticeable in everyday urban life.
In this educational seminar, organised in cooperation with Floating e.V., we embark on an interactive journey of discovery: informative, exploratory, critical and utopian. We approach rainwater as a source of life and an urban challenge – engaging all our senses and perspectives.
Day 1 – Seeing, hearing and feeling water:
We begin at the rainwater retention basin opened by Floating e.V. in Berlin-Kreuzberg. A unique aquatic ecosystem has developed here, right in the heart of the city. We encounter amphibians, algae and micro-organisms – and reflect on our own water consumption in times of global water scarcity. Using artistic and research-based methods, we explore the concept of the ‘sponge city’, a city that does not drain water away, but stores it.
Day 2 – Following the hidden water bodies:
We follow the trail of rainwater beneath Tempelhofer Feld and discover ancient glacial lakes – remnants of the Ice Age, fed by groundwater and rainwater. But they are under threat: falling groundwater levels and sealed surfaces are causing them to dry up. Together, we explore new approaches to water infiltration, such as in the ‘Malzfabrik’, with a new retention basin and an urban biotope. What does it take to save old water bodies – and create new water features?
Day 3 – Waterworks, Change and Visions:
To conclude, we will visit the Ökowerk in Grunewald, the site of Berlin’s first waterworks. Here, we will look back at the technological history of the city’s water supply – and look ahead to possible future scenarios. What does Berlin need to become a ‘sponge city’ that is resilient to climate change? What initiatives exist, and which ones might emerge? We conclude the seminar with a shared vision: what might a Sponge-Berlin look like?
Costs: 35 €
Language: Oral German.

Under the title of “(un)learning urbanity”, we want to continue to explore various urban issues from critical and interdisciplinary perspectives together with all of you.
(Un)learning is not simply forgetting or the erasure of knowledge. By (un)learning, we understand the deliberate challenging and questioning of normalised assumptions, frameworks and behaviours that may limit our ability to imagine alternative futures. When applied to urbanity, (un)learning becomes a way of questioning the familiar city and to rethink (everyday) practices.
