Wat Sanghathan, Buddhist temple in Schöneiche bei Berlin, Germany
Wat Sanghathan is a Buddhist temple in Schöneiche featuring traditional Thai architecture with white walls, curved roofs, and decorative elements typical of Southeast Asian religious buildings. The grounds include spaces designed for meditation, teaching, and religious gatherings.
This temple was established in 2010 as a branch of its counterpart near Bangkok. It began operations in a former municipal building that was converted for religious purposes.
The resident monks observe daily meditation and chanting routines rooted in Theravada Buddhism, which visitors can attend or watch. This place functions as a meeting point for Buddhists and people curious about Thai spiritual traditions in the surrounding area.
The temple is located at Brandenburgische Strasse 76a and welcomes visitors interested in learning about Buddhist practices. Contact ahead to confirm visiting times, as the site is home to a small monastic community.
In 2015, the community here supported refugees in Schöneiche through a donation from the abbot, demonstrating commitment beyond religious practice. This act of help reflects Buddhist values put into concrete action within the local area.
