Delegation from the Nova Gorica fire brigade visits Chemnitz
Press event on 30 August, 9.15 a.m., Fire Station I, Schadestraße 11
From 29 August to 1 September, the City of Chemnitz will be welcoming a delegation of firefighters from the twin city of Nova Gorica, Slovenia, to mark the European Capital of Culture Year 2025.
On Friday 30 August at 9.15 a.m., the delegation of six Slovenian firefighters will visit the Chemnitz professional fire brigade at Fire Station I, Schadestraße 11.
Media representatives are invited to attend.
The purpose of the meeting between the fire services of the two cities is to exchange experiences and learn from each other about how Nova Gorica and Chemnitz are preparing for the Capital of Culture year. The guests can expect an extensive programme designed to promote cultural exchange and cooperation between the two cities.
In October 2024, a delegation of Chemnitz firefighters will travel to Nova Gorica for a return visit to take part in a workshop on planning and organising major events from a fire service perspective.
The visit is made possible by the European exchange programme "City to City", which promotes intercultural dialogue and cooperation between European cities and creates space for innovative approaches and mutual learning.
