Play, exercise, and a little adventure right in the heart of Salzgitter’s downtown areas: In Salzgitter-Bad and -Lebenstedt, exciting ground-level games are now inviting people to join in and explore. This initiative by Wirtschafts- und Innovationsförderung Salzgitter GmbH (WIS) is designed to appeal especially to families with children and further enhance the quality of life in the city centers.

A pirate adventure awaits young explorers at a total of five locations in each city center. There, various floor graphics invite them to solve puzzles, play, and get moving. The stations feature a maze, a game based on the “The Floor Is Lava” concept, a treasure hunt with simple physical challenges, a picture and word puzzle, and a scavenger hunt. This allows children to explore the city centers with their parents in a playful way and experience little adventures. The floor graphics are freely accessible and can be used at any time.

The floor games are designed as temporary recreational elements. With this initiative, WIS is implementing a measure from the downtown concepts developed as part of the federal funding program “Sustainable Downtowns and Centers.”
