In principle, you are allowed to have a barbecue on private land – as long as it does not bother your neighbours. In public parks, however, barbecuing is prohibited under the Public Parks Law to avoid potential disorder and damage. In some parks and public green areas you will find signposted areas for barbecuing, where in compliance with the Rules exceptionally may be grilled also in a public park.

In general, the signposted barbecue areas are subareas of public parks, so please also pay attention to the information in the list (in German). Not in all boroughs you find barbecue areas. The information is based on details from the "Gartenämter" (Departments of Green Spaces) in the relevant boroughs. Only they are able to specify areas for barbecuing as well as to withdraw them again at short notice. Therefore all details stated here are subject to change. At any rate, pay attention to the signposts at the locations. If you are unsure, please inquire at the responsible "Gartenamt (Department of Green Spaces)" (in German).
