Die Kinder vom Alstertal is a German children's television series produced by Norddeutscher Rundfunk and broadcast on the Kinderkanal from 1998 to 2004. There are 52 episodes in four seasons.

Series

[edit]

The series is set in a large farmhouse near the North Sea with a station on the Hamburg U-Bahn. The main characters are seven children from three families living together in the house,[1] and the series also features assorted animals, in particular the farm dog, Oskar, the farm cats, a tame rooster, Einstein, and a pony, Justus.[2] It was a successor to Neues vom Süderhof, with the same director, Monika Zinnenberg [de], and Ursula Hinrichs, the grandmother in the former series, playing an aunt.[3] Scriptwriters were Marlies Kerremans, Jörn Schröder and Horst Peter Lommer,[1] with Arno Alexander as editor.[3] Die Kinder vom Alstertal aimed to be more realistic and somewhat more complex than its predecessor.[3]

Filming took place near Soltau[3] at the Menkenhof.[4]
