The ability to produce genuine multipartite entangled states between addressable modes is a prerequisite for engineering states relevant for quantum information tasks such as measurement based quantum computation. We use contact interactions in a tightly confined Bose-Einstein condensate of ⁸⁷Rb to generate an entangled state of indistinguishable particles in a single mode. Subsequent expansion of the atomic cloud in a shallow waveguide potential distributes this entanglement spatially making it addressable via local operations. We verify Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering between distinct regions of the expanded atomic cloud by analyzing the correlations between different parts of the absorption image. We show that bipartite steering serves as a witness for genuine multipartite entanglement. With this we demonstrate genuine up to 5-partite entanglement in the elongated condensate.
