Engagement & Projects

One of the par­ti­cu­lar high­lights of Art Week 2025 was the ope­ning of the new open-air stage on Eilen­burg Cast­le Hill. We were deligh­ted to accept the invi­ta­ti­on to take part and were extre­me­ly plea­sant­ly sur­pri­sed by this new venue for events, crea­ted by the Eilen­burg Burg­ver­ein We reco­g­nis­ed this com­mit­ment with a sub­se­quent dona­ti­on towards the future enrich­ment of Eilenburg’s cul­tu­ral land­scape.

Fol­lo­wing the posi­ti­ve impact that the Eilen­burg Art Week had on life in our town during its first two years, we deci­ded to step up our spon­sor­ship of this event. With almost 50 indi­vi­du­al events, work­shops and exhi­bi­ti­ons, the third edi­ti­on pro­ved to be a suc­cessful cul­tu­ral event, which signi­fi­cant­ly increased its media and regio­nal reach this year. We wish the ‘Klein­stadt­la­bor Kul­tur­netz­werk’ every suc­cess for the future and are com­mit­ted to con­ti­nuing our sup­port for it.

The appeal for dona­ti­ons published for the Children’s and Sum­mer Fes­ti­val spark­ed our inte­rest in the Band­haus Leip­zig pro­ject.

Fol­lo­wing an infor­ma­ti­ve exch­an­ge with tho­se in char­ge of the pro­ject, we deci­ded to pro­vi­de finan­cial sup­port to this cul­tu­ral cent­re in the west of Leip­zig. During a per­so­nal visit to the event, we also had some inte­res­t­ing con­ver­sa­ti­ons with for­mer col­le­agues from the indus­try, the tech­ni­cal team from Radio Blau and the association’s board.

In spring 2025, a post on Lin­ke­dIn brought the initia­ti­ve laun­ched by the Cham­bers of Indus­try and Com­mer­ce in Sax­o­ny to our atten­ti­on. The Zukunfts­stif­tung Sach­sen is inten­ded to act as an instru­ment with a clear eco­no­mic focus, to sti­mu­la­te growth and to streng­then Saxony’s competitiveness.As enthu­si­a­stic sup­port­ers of the initia­ti­ve, we invi­ted Chief Exe­cu­ti­ve Dr Fabi­an Magerl to a mee­ting with repre­sen­ta­ti­ves of the Eilen­burg Tou­ris­­­mus- und Gewer­be­ver­ein e.V. at the co-working space in our small town on the Mul­de. This con­s­truc­ti­ve dia­lo­gue will con­ti­nue in the future.

What was a dream for many young peo­p­le in Eilen­burg 25 years ago was final­ly rea­li­sed in 2018 by the Eilen­burg branch of the Ger­man Red Cross (DRK). Thanks to num­e­rous sup­port­ers and fun­ding, a hub for BMX, skate­board and inline-ska­­­ting enthu­si­asts was crea­ted on the site of the for­mer bar­racks. We made a dona­ti­on, too, to the dis­trict branch to help fund the con­s­truc­tion of a new con­cre­te struc­tu­re.
