Middle staircase in Schönau Park must be closed
The centre staircase in Schönau Park, which leads from Guerickestraße into the park opposite Schönau secondary school, will be closed. The reason for this is that the stairs, which are clad in natural stone, are no longer considered safe for traffic. This was the result of an investigation after clear cracks became visible.
In view of the fact that the wall in the area of the platform is already showing a clear overhang, the possibility of it collapsing cannot be ruled out. The stairs are closed up to the level of the pergolas.
The park has a total of three path connections from Eichelbergweg to Guerickestraße, which means that the closure of the middle connection will not cause any major restrictions.
