Load-bearing components of the wooden structure are affected by fungal decay, meaning that the facility is no longer safe to use in the long term.

Construction work for the renovation of the Ritterburg playground begins on May 12. Construction fences will be erected around the entire construction site to ensure safety. The playground cannot be used during the construction phase. Access for pedestrians and cyclists will be restricted.

The work is dependent on the weather and is expected to last until the beginning of July 2026. The city of Salzgitter asks for your understanding.
