Playing guitar at Bohlenplatz. Jogging in the Meilwald forest. Every Erlangen resident has their favorite green spot in the city that they always enjoy coming to. It provides rest and relaxation. Especially in midsummer, a little shade in the greenery is a blessing.

The city of Erlangen, together with the city green department and municipal companies, works daily to maintain the greenery in the city. In 2018, the city trees were made a "Erlangen matter of the heart" with a campaign. Urban green spaces and city trees not only help people to cool off, but are also an important habitat for insects and other animals. In this way, they make a significant contribution to adapting the urban climate to climate change. But there's more!

Citizens are called upon to get involved in the preservation and expansion of green spaces in the city. They can make every green space their own green space. This benefits the entire urban community.

Normally, we would refer you to the funding program "Gemeinsam mehr Grün für Erlangen" at this point, but it is currently not possibleto submit an application due to the budget situation. Thank you for your understanding.
