About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Your help is needed in the historical town of Linz am Rhein, with its many colourful old town houses. The town is home to the Tilmann-Joel-Park, along with the old Linz cemetery at St. Martin. This is where your work will take place – you will be taking over the gardening work and grave monument maintenance. Together with the local builder’s yard and a gardener, you will take care of the historical graves. This means that you will be working with hoes and spades a lot, since the old earth must be cleared from the graves before you can see the new soil, flowers, or plants. The work could sometimes be tiring, since you will have to remove roots, trees and undergrowth before you can redesign the area. Additionally, there is also a garden house on-site which needs a new coat of paint.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be staying in the town hall, in the centre of town. The group will prepare and cook meals together.

📍 About the location

Linz is in a beautiful spot along the river Rhine and you have numerous possibilities for excursions in the surrounding area. You will have a tour through the beautiful old town of Linz, which has several cafes and restaurants. Besides this, there is also a nice outdoor swimming pool. You can also take trips to the nearby cities of Bonn, Koblenz, or Cologne.
