The lecture is free and registration is not required. The landscape park, which remains according to the State Garden Show 2027, extends over a site between Speyerbach and Rehbach and includes seven areas, each offering different natural moods. The careful selection of plants should highlight and reinforce the natural conditions.

The mammoth project Landesgartenschau 2027

During the preparations for the State Garden Show 2027, there are already ambitious plans. The State Garden Show is currently taking place in Fulda, while eleven municipalities of the eastern Wetterau and parts of the Vogelsberg, including Büdingen, Echzell and Nidda, are working on the implementation of the next garden show. This community work requires a high coordination between the eleven administrations, which has been a major challenge so far, said Managing Director Thomas Hellingrath.

In order to ensure sustainable development, the plans should be taken care of that no new areas are created that remain unused after the show. The results of a recently carried out architecture competition have already been presented. The architecture firm Grabner Huber Lipp from Hamburg will design a citizens' park in Büdingen, while office from Franz Reschke from Berlin will design the Römerpark in Echzell and the castle park in Gedern. The BBZL office from Berlin is also responsible for the spa park in Bad Salzhausen.

costs and funding

The estimated investment costs for the four central core areas of the event are around 12 million euros. The state of Hesse promotes this development with 3.5 million euros. Further funding should also be acquired, and one hopes to cover part of the costs through ticket sales. The last state garden shows take place in Hesse every four years, the last one was in Fulda.

In addition to these developments, the garden show 2027 in Bad Urach is becoming more important. This planning is organized by the city of Bad Urach, with the jury recognizing the creation of coherent and characteristic freedom. The aim is to use high -quality upgrading sensitively and to over -plan less attractive areas. An intensely designed green axle is created, which creates an attractive entrance to the B28 through new parking garage solutions. In this way, a balancing act is sought between self-confident design and the respectful handling of the existing environment, as described in detail on Glück la

After the lecture with Christian Ranck, there is also the opportunity for questions and discussions with the speaker and the management of the State Garden Show 2027.
