Germany – Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services – "Bad Pyrmont - Innen:Stadt für die Zukunft" Objektplanung Freianlagen und Objektplanung Verkehrsanlagen

In light of structural, demographic and climatic changes, the inner city of Bad Pyrmont is facing a comprehensive transformation process. Changes in retail, increasing vacancies, deficiencies in public spaces, as well as higher demands for climate adaptation and sustainable mobility require an integrated further development. Since 2022, the inner city has therefore been integrated into the urban development funding programme "Lebendige Zentren". The basis of the competition is the Integrated Urban Development Concept (ISEK) with the vision "Health resort with a lot of history". The aim is a future-proof, lively and multifunctional inner city. This includes, in particular, strengthening as a residential, supply and health resort, the further development of tourism, the revitalisation of vacancies, as well as the addition of leisure, cultural and local recreation offers. With the competition, innovative and implementation-oriented concepts for the free and urban spatial development are to be won. At the centre are climate-adapted open space structures, a higher quality of stay and use, sustainable mobility, the activation of the inner city through new uses, temporary interventions and flexible use concepts, as well as the consideration of all generations and user groups. Building on measures already implemented, a long-term viable development concept is to be created that sets short-term impulses and enables the step-by-step implementation of the ISEK measures within the next ten years.
