Musical Playground
Between the wedding church of Clara and Robert Schumann in Leipzig’s Schönefeld district and the Zweinaundorfer Park in Mölkau, where the newlyweds celebrated their wedding day, the Leipziger Notenrad (Leipzig Music Bike Trail) leads through the Volkshain Stünz park. Together, the civic association Sellerhausen-Stünz, the Notenspur association, the foundation “Bürger für Leipzig” and the City of Leipzig’s parks and gardens department have realized a very special playground for little explorers at the southern edge of the park – a playground with musical instruments that can be "played". On the “Kletterorchester” (climbing orchestra) children can playfully discover the shape of common musical instruments and gain their own experiences with music. The playground, which was built between 2016 and 2018 with donations from citizens and financial support from the city, is not only an ideal resting place for families traveling on the Leipziger Notenrad but is also popular with the children of numerous daycare centers and local families.
