Playgrounds
Sandweg/Rosenhag playground completed
The playground was handed over on 6 February 2026, just in time for the start of the winter holidays. Work on the partial refurbishment had begun in November 2025. Among other things, the old play equipment in the play area was dismantled and replaced with new equipment. A play tower with a slide and various climbing options will offer a variety of challenges and play opportunities for the children in the neighbourhood in future. The sandpit was also rebuilt.
Gerhart-Hauptmann-Platz playground: Partial area open
The northern section of the playground on Gerhart-Hauptmann-Platz has been open for children to play in since 6 February 2026. The play equipment was designed following a competition on the theme of "Theatre World - Children's Play Stage" and the playground was divided into two play areas (north and south).
The north play area with the theme "On stage" is intended for children aged 3 to 12 years. Play elements include a spotlight that can be climbed on, a play footbridge, balancing tracks, slide tower, double swing, double bar and wobble plate.
The remaining work in the south play area (toddlers' area) with the "cloakroom" theme will be continued as soon as the weather permits.
