Location

Chemnitz Open Space

The new city map "ChemNetz" is here! The analogue and digital city map ChemNetz presents cultural and participatory locations, community gardens, places for swapping and sharing and much more. It is an alternative invitation to discover Chemnitz, away from the well-known attractions. It not only provides an overview of exciting places, but also information on how you can get involved, help shape and become active yourself.

The city map will be presented on the publication weekend: A colourful programme with tours, Chemnitz Bingo, karaoke, a panel discussion and much more invites you to rediscover Chemnitz. Above all, however, there will be freshly printed maps in your hands so that you can get to know the diverse places and people that characterise culture in Chemnitz.
