The residents in the neighbourhood around the streets Heinersdorfer-, Jacobsohn-, and Langhansstraße decided not to wait until the official construction of a municipal playground close to their houses and joined forces with other neighbours to make an adventure playground here. The 10-year-old Nora Feldman shares her views on this utopian – yet real – place called HeiJaLa-Land, right at her doorstep.
“In the beginning, it was just a pile of rubbish here” (Langhanstraße 71)
