The playground committee of the pilgrimage town of Kevelaer visited the new attraction at the playground on Theodor-Heuss-Ring. There, Stadtwerke Kevelaer, in collaboration with the municipal maintenance department, has installed a new, inclusive play structure. Since September, the playground has finally been open for climbing, sliding, and playing together!
During their visit, the playground committee saw for themselves the wide variety of play options. Whether it’s the stainless-steel slide, the rope suspension bridge, the climbing net, or the wall bars—there’s plenty for children to discover and climb here. What makes it special: Thanks to a wheelchair-accessible walkway with handrails on both sides and wheel guards, as well as a wheelchair-accessible play table, children in wheelchairs can also use part of the playground equipment and are right in the middle of the action, rather than just on the sidelines.
“Play knows no bounds—and that’s exactly what we want to convey with this new playground structure,” says Mayor Dr. Dominik Pichler. “It’s great to see how the playground committee continues to prioritize variety and accessibility in its decisions.”
