The area Donaustrasse-Nord is <strong>in</strong> the north of the district Neukölln. It is bordered <strong>in</strong> the west by Karl-Marx-Strasse, <strong>in</strong> the north by the<br />
Hermannplatz, <strong>in</strong> the east by Sonnenallee and <strong>in</strong> the south by Erkstrasse. Block build<strong>in</strong>gs from the foundation years, with almost <strong>in</strong>cessant<br />
commercial space along the two ma<strong>in</strong> roads Karl-Marx-Strasse and Sonnenallee, are characteristic features of this area. The streets<br />
leave an unkempt impression; green and open spaces are virtually non-existent.<br />

Donaukiez” will take place.<br />
The borough festival aims at provid<strong>in</strong>g a<br />
forum for the community of the neighborhood<br />
to meet and strengthen ties,<br />
regardless of age, orig<strong>in</strong>, ideology, education<br />
and religion.<br />
