Georg Friedrich Händel High School, Berlin-Friedrichshain Extension of the school open spaces and creation of new sports and play areas

Near Frankfurter Tor, the Pablo Neruda Library, which opened in 2010, and the Georg Friedrich Händel High School are developing into a particularly important cultural and educational location for the Friedrichshain district. The school's open spaces have been redesigned in connection with the entire surroundings of the district's central library since 2013. The urban context of the library, school, a daycare center and a new auditorium is to be strengthened by an overarching design of the open spaces.

In May 2014, the newly designed schoolyard and sports facilities were handed over to the high school. The students can now use - in addition to benches and platforms - a 100m running track and a long jump facility on a synthetic surface, as well as a varied climbing course, a motor skills track and a table tennis table. With reference to the materiality and colouring of the surroundings, mainly materials in yellowish and grey tones were used, which blend harmoniously into the existing building.
