Since 2024, the annual cycling festival "Cycassel" has taken place in Kassel, placing the bicycle at the centre of attention – as a mode of transport, a cultural carrier, and a tool for social change. With a diverse programme of lectures, panel discussions, cycling tours, participatoryactivities, and cultural events, the “Radwochen” (cycling weeks) make sustainable mobility visible and tangible in the city.

Cycassel emerged from an interdisciplinary seminar run jointly by the Institute for Sport and Sport Science and our Department of Cycling and Sustainable Mobility. It is organised by an open team of students, engaged citizens, local initiatives, and various sponsors.

Cycassel serves as a platform for exchange, activation, and new impulses. They demonstrate how the mobility transition can be shaped locally – creatively, inclusively, and with great enthusiasm for cycling. The department of Cycling and Sustainable Mobility is actively involved, contributing academic content, outdoor teaching sessions, and taking part in livelymobility discourse.
