Following the successful Capital of Culture year 2025, the city of Chemnitz is working on securing and further developing the structures and impetus created in the process in the long term. The aim is to stabilise the effects achieved, develop new projects and maintain opportunities for participation for the urban community and the region in the long term. The year 2026 serves as a so-called "bridge year" in which the foundations for sustainable continuation, the legacy, are laid.
