contents It has been observed that, given an algebraic quantum field theory (AQFT) on a manifold $M$ and an open cover $\{M_α\}$ of $M$, it is typically not possible to recover the global algebra of observables on $M$ by simply gluing the underlying local algebras subordinate to $\{M_α\}$. Instead of gluing local algebras, we introduce a gluing construction for AQFTs subordinate to $\{M_α\}$ and we show that for simple examples of AQFTs, constructed out of geometric data, gluing the local AQFTs subordinate to $\{M_α\}$ recovers the global AQFT on $M$.
