Expanded play area, new route for exploration: project at Burgk Castle
In exciting news for families and outdoor enthusiasts in Freital, Germany, Burgk Castle is set to undergo a significant transformation. The city has announced plans to create a new barrier-free loop trail and expand the on-site adventure playground, "Burgkania".
The new 2.6-kilometer-long adventure trail, named "The Search for Black Gold", will be part of the castle grounds and will feature new information boards, a wildflower meadow, and seating areas. The trail is scheduled to begin construction on October 5th and is expected to be completed by the end of 2023.
During the construction period, the playground at Burgk Castle will be closed. However, the existing play equipment at the "Burgkania" playground will be refurbished as part of the project.
The project is being funded by the Free State and does not include any advertisements. It is not a temporary or short-term initiative, nor is it related to any other unmentioned projects or events.
The city of Freital aims to make Burgk Castle more family-friendly with these improvements, offering a fun and accessible outdoor experience for all. For up-to-date details on the project's progress, we recommend contacting the Freital city administration or local news sources.
The city's vision for Burgk Castle encompasses a more engaging lifestyle with the creation of a barrier-free loop trail for outdoor-living, named "The Search for Black Gold". This endeavor, part of the castle grounds, will also include home-and-garden elements like new information boards, a wildflower meadow, and seating areas.
