Closing Event for the Exhibition: The Changing Pedestrian Zone | A Look at Kassel's Downtown
Students from the Institute for Urban Development at the University of Kassel, who curated the exhibition, will be on site for the closing event. Over drinks and snacks, there will be an opportunity to engage in conversation and explore questions in greater depth.
The pedestrian zone is a cornerstone of urban planning from the 1960s and 1970s. Since its inception, it has weathered many changes and crises, from smog alerts in the 1990s to the financial crisis of the 2000s. The exhibition focuses on Königsplatz as the central square of the city center, but also examines the development of traffic, individual buildings, and the shops in the pedestrian zone. The exhibition traces the various phases of the pedestrian zone’s development.
The exhibition runs through October 2, 2026.
