In the next stop, representatives of District Management downtown and Chemnitz Grünt presented a flowering meadow that serves not only the conservation of domestic plant and insect species, but also as a social meeting point for the local residents. The tour continued by a visit to the project “Dolphin” (Projekt Delphin) where a pilot project is currently established using plants as water filter for aqua ponds (used for urban fish farming).
