Internationales Rote Burg Forum (Online)
Sunday 19 January 4pm – 5:30pm
We are building a retreat centre in the forest north of Berlin at the site of the „Rote Burg“ (the „Red Castle“). Our vision is to create a meeting place where we can dedicate ourselves to deepening our Buddhist practice in the midst of nature – for the Berlin sangha as well as for the wider Triratna community from all across the European continent.
The site features two red brick buildings with 960 square metres of floor space which are surrounded by four hectares of meadows and a beautiful oak forest. When the building is complete we will be able to accommodate up to 59 people.
Since we bought the land and building in summer 2020, we have been working with a team of architects, engineers and specialist planners to realize our vision. We received planning permission in August 2024. In the next project phase, we now want to convert the buildings according to our needs by summer 2026.
On Sunday January 19th from 4-5.30 PM Berlin time (3-4.30 PM UK time) we invite you to join us for an online event.
During the event you can find out:
- How our vision translates into a building design and how we plan to carry out the professional building work
- How well our fundraising activities have been going so far and how we plan to fund the project
- How the Rote Burg is already a place for Dharma practice and what kind of activities we offer to the Triratna sangha
