Wilhelminenaue/ LGS Bayreuth 2016

The new park consists of two main parts: the Auepark and the landscape cabinets. The Mainbellevue viewing terraces are located at the interface of the cabinets, which extend into the natural space. This is where the interplay between the two parts of the park takes place. The design develops a structure of wooded areas from the adjacent field to the east, which becomes denser towards the edge of the slope by the river and dissolves loosely into the landscape. Generous landscape cabinets are embedded in the wooded areas, forming a park edge to the Main floodplain and structuring it with their rhythm. They form striking landscape markers here. The landscape cabinets are connected to each other and to the city center and the Hermitage via the Auebogen. Particular attention is paid to the connection from the western parts of the city, especially St. Georgen. From here, too, a cabinet, the Panoramakabinett, is accentuated as it slides into the floodplain. The further down the visitor goes, the more the panorama opens up and ends in the Mainbalkon. The floodplain arch in the east leads the visitor from cabinet to cabinet and constantly opens up new views and panoramas of the renaturalized floodplain.
