New brochure "Stadtgrün in Radebeul" published

The brochure "30 years of municipal construction" was recently published as a review of the construction projects of the city of Radebeul. A separate brochure, "Stadtgrün Radebeul" , is now dedicated to an essential part of Radebeul, its public green spaces. It is intended to provide an overview of the variety of public green spaces that characterise the cityscape today. The focus was deliberately placed not only on large-scale projects, but also on the many lovingly designed details. "In addition to the city centre parks and town squares, which are naturally in focus, the charm of today's Radebeul also lies in the preserved originality of the historic village greens and squares, the green spaces along the Elbe or along the Lößnitz slope with the (wine) hiking trails, our grounds and valleys, such as Lößnitzgrund with its ponds, but also the compensation areas that have been created in recent years to shape the landscape," emphasises First Mayor Dr Jörg Müller in his foreword and continues: "Since the new beginning of society in 1989/90, urban greenery has regained its important role in the development of the city. The results are impressive. Thanks are due to the Urban Greenery Department (in today's City Planning Office), which has been under the management of Heike Funke since 1990, who is handing over her office to younger hands today." Matthias Kürzel will take over as head of the Urban Greenery Department in future.

The brochure is intended to encourage citizens to (re)discover their own town and explore the many beautiful little places in their home town that make Radebeul as a whole the beautiful place that it is.

"Let yourself be captivated by the beauty of our urban greenery - and let's work together to make our Radebeul even more beautiful, even greener. However, this requires an effort from all of us and the realisation that a plot of land does not have to be used to its full legal potential. Radebeul needs the "space to breathe", otherwise we ourselves will destroy the cultural landscape of which we are so proud," says Mayor Dr Jörg Müller.
