Shopping & Amenities
As well as supermarkets, gourmet and speciality food shops, bakeries, banks, chemists, shoe, clothing, gift and book shops and hairdressers, Zehlendorf is also good for locally grown farm produce such as berries and mushrooms, sold in season around the train station. There’s a small cinema in Zehlendorf, and Dahlem has several cinemas. In good weather, you can swim and sail in the many lakes of Zehlendorf, or visit Domäne Dahlem, a working open-air farm museum. In bad weather, the cultural attractions of Dahlem await: the Brückemuseum, an extensive collection of expressionist art and the Ethnologisches Museum, with astounding collections from Africa, Asia, Australia, and North America, are especially worth visiting. In December, Dahlem hosts a popular child-friendly Christmas market with a petting zoo.
