New Location for the Festival
Anyone wishing to visit the family festival and environment day this year will need to adjust their plans slightly regarding the location. Due to extensive construction work on the Rasenmühleninsel, the event cannot take place there as usual. The alternative venue is the so-called “Kleines Paradies.” This is the green space that extends directly between the Paradiesbahnhof and the banks of the Saale. The new location also brings logistical advantages: due to its immediate proximity to the station, the area is excellently connected to local public transport and is easily accessible on foot or by bicycle.
Colorful Program for All Ages
Between 1:00 PM and 6:00 PM, the “Kleines Paradies” will be transformed into a large adventure landscape. Numerous Jena clubs, municipal institutions, and local companies will be presenting themselves on-site. Visitors can look forward to a varied stage program as well as diverse hands-on activities specifically designed for children. A wide range of culinary offerings will also be available throughout the duration of the event.
Background: The Jenaer Paradies
The Paradiespark is the “green lung” of Jena and a central local recreation area for all generations. The historic park extends as a landscape axis along the Saale and connects urban life with nature. It is a tradition for environment and family days to take place in the vicinity of this area: the focus is often on nature and environmental protection to raise awareness of local ecosystems and sustainable action in urban spaces, even among the city’s youngest citizens.
