Relaxation and fitness

«Muscle Beach»

In Santa Monica, Muscle Beach is by the sea, but in the Papieri neighborhood you’ll find it beside the River Lorze. A recreation and fitness zone with various strength-training machines is created in a secluded spot beneath the trees by the Lorze. This is the ultimate playground for adults.

Fun for the kids

Playground with climbing structure

Beneath the trees near the engine shed, the «paper plane» playground is a very special place for little ones. Among other things, it features a thrilling climbing structure and provides a go-to place for parents and their children to go. As a beautifully designed outdoor space, also parents love spending time there.

Among the trees

Siloplatz

The tree-lined Siloplatz between Buildings I and K creates another lovely space within the new neighborhood that simply invites you to linger a while. As a neighborhood square, it also offers plenty of space for taking a break, relaxing or engaging in neighborhood life.

The north-south connection directly on the river

Lorzensteg

The Lorzensteg belongs to one of the most popular places in the neighborhood.

The Lorzensteg takes you along the side of the old paper machinery halls and straight over the deep green, crystal-clear River Lorze, forming a north–south connection that makes a lovely place to while away some time. Those looking for peace and quiet flock to the shore. This is a lovely, cool spot on warm summer evenings.

A square for neighborhood living

Papieri-Platz

Papieri Platz in the heart of the neighborhood makes for a central gathering place. People meet up in the large piazza, throw parties and – in summer – enjoy a cool drink outside the Kesselhaus restaurant.

Bikers and cyclists can make use of the bike station to repair minor defects or remove any dirt from previous rides.
