Public squares
The public squares are the result of intensive participation in the city's neighbourhoods and localities. Together with the citizens, local stakeholders selected places that the city of Chemnitz redesigned for the European Capital of Culture.
Each of the eight areas of the citizens' platforms and each of the eight incorporated localities was allocated 325,000 euros. The selected projects are diverse. They range from the renovation of club rooms and the design of hiking trails and parks to the construction of a lift for an event venue.
