Mayor Litzinger: Gärtnerhaus becomes a repair café for Gelnhausen!
Gelnhausen Mayor Christian Litzinger has ambitious plans to organize the urban real estate stocks and use it more efficiently. Many of the existing buildings have been acquired in the past without a clear goal, which led to an overhang of neglected objects. The resistance to the sale of the old rabbi house was particularly controversial, which led to a moratorium. In contrast, the planned sale of the old school in Roth is opposed to less protest, and the takeover of the club house "Kinzigtal" is received positively.
Currently, numerous urban real estate is in poor condition. Part of the city archive is to be outsourced to the new fire station in 2025 to make room for further projects. While many buildings have problems, the old gardener house in the city center cemetery has a good structural constitution. However, the location of the house limits the possible uses. Currently, only part of the basement and a room on the ground floor are used by the city depot.
Use of the gardener house for social projects
The gardener house, which was built as a house for a stonemason family at the end of the 19th century, could soon find a new destination. The BUND Gelnhausen has been interested in renting the building for a repair café, since the current rent rooms are no longer available from April 2025. This repair café, which will celebrate its tenth anniversary in the coming year, enables citizens to bring defective devices for repair-60-70% of the devices are successfully reset.
The local advisory board has already spoken out to the federal government for renting some of the gardener house. In order to use Mayor Litzinger's proposal to use the gardener house for the Repair Café, creating a demarcation by a hedge could be promising. This could not only improve the use of the building, but also contribute to the positive upgrading of the living environment.
revitalization and urban development
The change in use and revitalization of urban buildings are central aspects of urban development. Not only the gardener house, but also other outdated structures could be revived by modernizations and conversion. A successful approach to promote quality of life in urban areas is the combination of the preservation of existing structures and the creation of new, multifunctional rooms. This could be sustainably upgraded Gelnhausen and, for example, increase attractiveness and social dynamics.
In view of the multitude of challenges associated with revitalization projects - such as the balance between the preservation of historical substance and modern requirements - it remains important that such projects are carefully planned and implemented. With the current developments, however, Gelnhausen shows a clear way how the cityscape can be influenced positively through joint use and creative concepts.The property management Jentsch, which has been active in the Main-Kinzig district for 30 years, could offer valuable support due to its expertise on site. As a member of the association of real estate administrators Hessen e.V., the company is known for the personal support of objects and proper accounting. This could also be useful for the administration and potential reuse of urban real estate. In Gelnhausen, the possibility of revitalizing not only old buildings such as the gardener house, but also the entire cityscape through innovative approaches.
